Full Job Description
We are looking for a Vendor Relationship Manager to own the relationship, performance, and commercial lifecycle of these vendors on behalf of Risk.

This is a vendor-facing role. You are the primary point of contact for our risk vendors - running regular business reviews, driving contract renewals and renegotiations, and staying close enough to the business to catch when a use case is changing and translate that into a likely cost or risk impact. You partner tightly with the Risk OpEx/finance lead - who owns PO accruals, invoices, budgeting, and variance - feeding them the forward signal they need. If you like building trusted vendor partnerships and turning them into better performance, terms, and value for Intuit, this is the role.

Responsibilities

  • Own and evolve the vendor relationship: serve as the primary point of contact for Risk's third-party vendors, building trusted partnerships and acting as the connective tissue between vendors and Risk business owners.
  • Set the operating rhythm and QBR governance: lead a consistent review cadence with each vendor - performance against SLAs, roadmap, issues, and value delivered - and drive follow-through on actions.
  • Lead contract renewals and renegotiations and own commercial outcomes: lead renewal planning and renegotiation prep, partnering with Sourcing/3PRM and business owners on terms, pricing, and savings.
  • Stay ahead of use-case and cost changes: keep close to how each vendor is used across Risk Policy/Ops, spot when a use case is shifting, and translate that into impact on cost and related recommendations.
  • Monitor vendor performance and value: track SLAs, service quality, and ROI; maintain vendor scorecards; and surface duplicated or underperforming services for consolidation or exit.
  • Coordinate PoCs: manage the vendor relationship through proof-of-concept - scope, success criteria, and go/no-go.
  • Own vendor risk touchpoints: track vendor incidents and outages, and coordinate ongoing monitoring and quarterly attestations with 3PRM.
  • Partner with Risk OpEx/finance: provide the forward-looking vendor signal (usage, renewals, use-case changes) that feeds PO accruals, invoicing, budgeting, and variance analysis.
  • Support the vendor engagement framework: define and scale repeatable frameworks and help evolve Risk's standardized approach to vendor management - roles, cadences, timelines, and communications.


Qualifications

  • 5+ years in vendor/supplier relationship management, category management, partnerships, or a related field - ideally supporting risk, fraud, payments, or financial services.
  • Proven track record building, negotiating, and owning third-party relationships and running structured business reviews (MBRs/QBRs).
  • Experience leading contract renewals and renegotiations, partnering with sourcing/procurement on terms and savings.
  • Commercial and business acumen - able to connect a changing vendor use case to its likely cost and risk impact, and communicate that clearly.
  • Strong cross-functional collaborator - influences and drives alignment across teams independently / with limited guidance to drive clear ownership.
  • Familiarity with procurement and third-party risk concepts (POs, SoWs, PoCs, due diligence, monitoring, attestations).
  • Builds durable scalable processes with strong communication skills; comfortable with spreadsheets/data (Excel/Google Sheets), with an AI-first mindset toward reducing manual work.
  • Solves ambiguous business problems and shapes process without a playbook.
  • Bachelor's degree in Business, Finance, Supply Chain, a related field, or commensurate experience. Relevant certifications (e.g., CPSM, PMP, CTPRP) a plus.
