Details of the offer

Senior Contract & Relationship Manager | AucklandWork as part of a highly collaborative teamBased in Highbrook East Tamaki with 2 days' work from home flexWorking as part of a collaborative team, you'll be one of two Senior Contract & Relationship Managers, where you'll take ownership of contract and relationship management activities.
Each Manager has their own portfolio of contracts and relationships that they manage, enabling you to have a deep understanding of the terms of contracts, the scope of work, key stakeholders, and the dynamics of relationships with vendors and supply partners.
You'll contribute to strategic-level governance forums, provide input into contract negotiation, and the execution of future outsourcing initiatives and projects. Relationship management is crucial to your success in this role, so you'll work in close collaboration and participate in cross-functional teams with internal stakeholders, as well as with NZ Post vendors. The team operates with a proactive approach which helps to facilitate open and transparent communication, fosters positive relationships, encourages collaboration, and helps in resolving conflict or issues that may arise during the contract management phase of the procurement lifecycle.

Ideally, you'll combine this with having up-to-date knowledge of the global Transport and Fleet landscape, services offered, and pricing, and also be a member of APICS/NZPICs (Association for Operations and Supply Chain Professionals).
It also goes without saying that your communication skills will be top-notch.
