Job Description

You’ll take the lead in shaping how we partner with our vendors—bringing fresh thinking and a more forward-looking approach to how we plan, collaborate, and deliver. With a stronger focus on vendor strategy than traditional space planning, you’ll help shift the mindset from reactive to proactive, ensuring vendors are aligned well ahead of key milestones and business needs.

Job Responsibility

  • Build and embed a forward-looking vendor strategy, focusing on long-term (2-year) milestones and expectations
  • Partner closely with vendors to align their plans with broader business unit objectives (BUA planning)
  • Move vendor engagement from last-minute involvement to early, structured collaboration
  • Bring fresh, innovative perspectives to how vendor processes are designed and executed
  • Independently assess current ways of working and propose improved approaches
  • Develop strong, trusted relationships with third-party suppliers while confidently managing challenging conversations
  • Act as a key point of contact between stakeholders and vendors, ensuring clarity, alignment, and accountability

Requirements

  • Proven experience working with vendors or third-party suppliers (ideally outside retail environments)
  • A proactive, self-driven mindset with the confidence to work independently and bring forward your own ideas and solutions
  • Strong stakeholder management skills, including experience dealing directly with vendors
  • Ability to build positive relationships while also handling difficult or high-stakes conversations professionally
  • Experience collaborating with external partners or suppliers (industry experience does not need to be telecom-specific)
  • Someone who thinks differently and challenges the status quo to improve outcomes

What we offer

  • Excellent basic salary plus bonus and Vodafone benefits
  • Up to 28 days off plus bank holidays
  • Paid time for charity work
  • Discounts
  • Vouchers
  • Pension plan
  • Learning tools
  • Parental leave policies
