Vendor Manager Analyst
At Mindbox we connect top IT talents with technology projects for leading enterprises across Europe.
Join our client's team, where you'll play a key role in shaping a consistent, best-practice approach to technology vendor management within the Chief Technology Office of one of the world's leading global financial institutions. Your contribution will help deliver high-impact solutions in technology operations – vendor lifecycle governance and commercial management at enterprise scale.
You'll step in as a Vendor Management Analyst, working closely with Senior Vendor Managers, Operations Management, Finance, and senior stakeholders across multiple CTO functions to manage the IT vendor portfolio throughout its full lifecycle – from selection to renewal or exit. Your role will be central to maximising value, addressing risk, and aligning vendor performance with technology and business goals – not just execution
