• Assist with defining and documenting vendor scopes of work, project requirements, service expectations, and contractual deliverables.
• Collect, analyze, and interpret financial, operational, and performance data to support informed business decisions and continuous improvement.
• Develop and maintain project documentation, status reports, dashboards, and performance metrics to provide visibility into contractual and operational activities.
• Identify opportunities to improve vendor management processes, contract administration workflows, and reporting efficiency.
• Communicate project updates, contractual concerns, financial findings, and recommended next steps clearly and professionally to internal and external stakeholders.
• Support the use and ongoing improvement of contract lifecycle management tools and related business processes.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure projects, vendor commitments, and service delivery expectations remain aligned with organizational objectives.
