• Tracks market trends, new technology entrants, and competitor pricing benchmarks in the orthopedic and spine device markets.
• Owns supply chain cost-savings targets and reports on realized savings, cost avoidance, and contract compliance to executive leadership.
• Builds and maintains spend analytics and dashboards by category, vendor, and surgeon to inform negotiation strategy and standardization efforts.
• Partners with Finance on capital equipment budgeting, business case development, and lease-versus-purchase analysis.
• Consults regularly with hospital and Group office personnel on contracting issues, operational challenges, and program analysis.
• Evaluates and stands up sourcing processes, systems, and contract infrastructure that can support rapid onboarding of new locations, surgeons, or service lines without creating bottlenecks.
• Identifies opportunities for group purchasing organization (GPO) participation, national agreements, or multi-facility contracts that create leverage as the organization scales.
• Supports new facility due diligence and onboarding, including contract review, supplier rationalization, and adoption of standard processes and systems.

Supervisory Responsibilities

• Develop talent through mentoring, training, and career development initiatives.

• Manage conflict and make timely decisions to maintain team focus and performance.
• Conduct regular one-on-one meetings, performance reviews, and development conversations.
• Approve timecards, schedules, time-off requests, and other administrative HR functions.
• Ensure compliance with company policies, labor laws, and safety regulations.

POSITION REQUIREMENTS:

• Demonstrated contract negotiation and vendor management skills, with strong analytical ability to evaluate contracts, pricing structures, and business terms and translate findings into recommendations.
• Exceptional verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to influence surgeons and physician stakeholders.
• Experience building or scaling sourcing processes and systems to support organizational growth.
• Deep knowledge of orthopedic and spine implant categories, physician preference items, and surgical capital equipment sourcing.
• Proficiency with contract management systems and ERP/materials management platforms.
• Proficiency with Microsoft PowerBI, Excel, Word, and PowerPoint.
