Vendor Management & Contract Administrator

Progress Partners is a fast-growing technology company building and scaling next-generation SaaS and mobile platforms. We blend creativity with data-driven execution to ship high-impact products, including AI-powered tools, productivity platforms, and workflow software, used by millions of people in more than 160 countries.

Our global team of experts in software development, product design, growth, and analytics collaborates across time zones to deliver category-defining innovations. We work end-to-end across the product lifecycle: design, build, launch, and scale.

About the Role

We work with dozens of providers, and that number keeps growing. You will be the dedicated full-time owner of this area: managing contract renewals, preparing and executing negotiations, initiating conversations with new vendors, and keeping every agreement and its terms under control.

What You’ll Do

• Own the full vendor lifecycle: sourcing and evaluating new providers, onboarding, relationship management, renewals, and offboarding.

• Prepare and execute contract negotiations: research market rates, build negotiation strategies, and secure better pricing and terms across our vendor base.

• Manage renewals proactively: track dates, review terms in advance, and ensure no contract auto-renews on unfavorable conditions.

• Build and maintain a central vendor and contract registry, with clear, automated workflows for tracking agreements, terms, owners, and obligations.

• Monitor vendor performance and compliance: SLAs, deliverables, and contractual obligations, resolving issues before they become problems.

• Partner with internal stakeholders to understand needs, consolidate overlapping tools and services, and give leadership clear visibility into vendor spend and savings.

What We’re Looking For

• 5+ years in vendor management, procurement, supply chain, or contract administration, ideally in an international, multi-vendor environment.

• Hands-on negotiation and contract management experience: proven track record of improving supplier terms and ensuring compliance with agreed conditions.

• Process builder mindset: experience digitizing documentation and reporting workflows, replacing manual tracking with automated, transparent systems.

• Highly organized, detail-oriented, and analytical: able to manage dozens of active agreements and deadlines while using data to compare offers and demonstrate savings.

• Strong communication skills and fluent English: able to build long-term vendor relationships while representing the company's interests firmly.

Nice to Have

• Experience with cross-border agreements, SaaS or digital service providers, or fast-growing remote companies.

• Learning & development budget: courses, books, conferences, certifications, whatever helps you grow.

• A small, senior, collaborative team where your work is visible and your decisions matter.

• The chance to build products used by millions of people across 160+ countries.
