Full Job Description
What Will You Be Doing?

The Sr. Manager, BPO Partner Management owns the day-to-day relationship with Frontier's Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) partners and serves as the company's primary point of contact for outsourced operations. The role is strategic and tactical in equal measure: it sets the direction for how Frontier partners with its providers while standing up the execution disciplines - service level agreement (SLA) design, management, and enforcement, and the negotiation of Master Service Agreements (MSAs) and Statements of Work (SOWs) - that make outsourcing successful.

Reporting to the Director, Airport Strategy, Facilities & BPO Services, this role builds a new function from the ground up, partnering with business units across the company - including Airport & Customer Service, Inflight, Legal, Finance & Accounting, and Procurement / Shared Services - to develop, transition, and mature outsourced operations. The position calls for sound judgment, strong relationship management, and end-to-end accountability for partner performance, service quality, and the cost savings the program is designed to deliver.

Essential Functions

  • Serve as Frontier's day-to-day owner and primary point of contact for BPO partners, managing the relationship and overall partner performance.
  • Lead the design, management, and enforcement of service level agreements (SLAs) - building the metrics, reporting, and governance that hold partners accountable for quality and outcomes.
  • Negotiate and manage Master Service Agreements (MSAs) and Statements of Work (SOWs), partnering with Legal, Procurement, and Finance on commercial terms.
  • Partner with individual business units to develop, transition, and mature outsourced operations, helping each function move work to partners with the right documentation and controls.
  • Shape the strategic direction of Frontier's BPO function - prioritizing scope, sequencing transitions, and identifying additional opportunities to outsource over time.
  • Build and run the governance model for partner management, including regular business reviews, escalation paths, and executive reporting.
  • Monitor partner performance against SLAs and cost targets, surfacing risks early and driving corrective action.
  • Coordinate across internal stakeholders to streamline decision-making and keep transitions on track.
  • Support the financial case for outsourcing in partnership with Finance, helping ensure the program delivers its targeted savings.
  • As the function grows, help build and lead a small team, providing direction and development to analysts and coordinators.


Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Business, Finance, Supply Chain, Operations, or a related field; equivalent experience considered.
  • Approximately 7 or more years of relevant experience in vendor / partner management, outsourcing, procurement, operations, consulting, or a related area.
  • 3+ years of direct people leadership experience
  • Experience negotiating and managing commercial agreements (e.g., MSAs, SOWs, or service contracts).
  • Experience developing or managing SLAs and holding partners or vendors accountable to performance metrics is preferred.
  • Experience in airline, travel, or other operationally complex, multi-stakeholder environments is a plus, but not required.


Knowledge, Skills and Abilities

  • Strong relationship management and communication skills, with the ability to work across all levels of the organization and with external partners.
  • Comfortable operating at both strategic and tactical levels - setting direction while managing day-to-day execution.
  • Sound judgment and the ability to make decisions and solve problems in a developing, sometimes ambiguous, environment.
  • Organized and detail-oriented, with the ability to manage multiple workstreams and partners simultaneously.
  • Working knowledge of contracting, SLAs, and performance-management concepts.
  • Comfort with data, reporting, and basic financial analysis to track performance and savings.
  • A collaborative, build-it mindset suited to standing up a new function.
  • Ability to travel periodically in support of partner and business-unit needs.
