What You’ll Do:

The Vendor Management Coordinator role is a hands-on role responsible for executing and directly overseeing the day-to-day vendor lifecycle within Vendor Management — including but not limited to vendor onboarding, ongoing vendor maintenance, and vendor data cleanup and catalog setup and maintenance. 

About the role:

As a newly established team, this role will also be responsible for assisting in building out foundational documentation, including Desktop Procedures (DTPs), process flows, and job aids, to standardize how the team operates. This person will directly execute and manage vendor requests while assisting and leading our offshore resources, ensuring consistent quality and turnaround.

 Vendor Onboarding

Directly process and manage new vendor requests end-to-end in Coupa, including collection and validation of required documentation (W-9/W-8, bank letters, VAT/tax registration, etc.)

Perform verification of vendor banking and tax details to reduce fraud risk before activation

Partner directly with business owners and other stakeholders to resolve onboarding blockers and documentation gaps

Catalog Setup & Management

Configure and maintain vendor catalogs directly within Coupa, including item/service data, pricing updates, and punch-out integrations

Troubleshoot catalog issues with Coupa admins and coordinate directly with vendors to keep content accurate and current

Vendor Maintenance

Process ongoing vendor record updates — banking changes, contact/address updates, tax documentation renewals, and approval group/routing changes

Apply and enforce verification protocols for sensitive changes (e.g., banking detail updates) to protect against fraud

Vendor Data Cleanup

Conduct regular audits of the vendor master file, directly identifying and remediating duplicate, inactive, or incomplete records

Maintain data quality standards and execute cleanup cycles in partnership with Procurement Operations and IT

Documentation & Process Standardization

Own the creation and upkeep of Desktop Procedures (DTPs) for all core team functions (onboarding, catalog setup, maintenance, cleanup)

Build clear, repeatable process flows/diagrams for key workflows to support consistency, training, and audit readiness

Continuously update documentation as processes evolve or systems change

Use documentation as the foundation for training new team members, including offshore resources

Team Leadership

Lead, coach, and manage day-to-day work of the offshore resources, ensuring adherence to SLAs and documented processes

Assign and balance workload across the team, directly stepping in on complex or escalated vendor issues

Train team members using established DTPs and process documentation; identify gaps and update materials as needed

Cross-Functional Partnership

Serve as the go-to point of contact for stakeholders on day-to-day vendor questions and issues

Provide regular updates to Procurement leadership on volume, cycle times, and data quality/documentation progress

Who you are:

2+ years of experience in vendor management, procurement operations, or supplier enablement, ideally including 1+ years leading or mentoring a team

Strong hands-on experience with a procurement/P2P platform (Coupa strongly preferred), including catalog management

Experience creating process documentation (DTPs, SOPs, process flows/diagrams) — this is a core, not incidental, part of the role

Experience managing or coordinating with offshore/distributed teams

Solid understanding of vendor onboarding compliance requirements (tax documentation, banking verification, fraud-prevention controls)

Comfortable operating in a "builder" capacity on a new team — establishing process where none currently exists

Detail-oriented, organized, and able to balance hands-on execution with team leadership
