About This Position

We’re looking for a strategic, data-driven Senior Analyst to take ownership of our SaaS vendor ecosystem and help us scale with discipline and intention. In this role, you won’t just manage renewals — you’ll shape how we invest in technology, optimize spend, and ensure our platforms deliver maximum business value.

You’ll partner across Business Systems, Finance, IT, Security, Legal, and functional leadership to align SaaS strategy with long-term platform roadmaps. If you thrive at the intersection of analytics, negotiation, and cross-functional collaboration, this is an opportunity to make measurable impact across the organization.

What You’ll Own:
Strategic Vendor Leadership
  • Serve as the primary relationship owner for key SaaS vendors, acting as the trusted liaison between vendors and internal stakeholders
  • Lead performance reviews, roadmap conversations, and escalations
  • Partner with functional leaders to drive adoption, optimization, and platform value realization

Renewals & Commercial Strategy
  • Own the full SaaS renewal lifecycle — from planning and stakeholder alignment to executive-ready decision support
  • Lead pricing negotiations, contract structuring, and commercial discussions to secure favorable terms
  • Develop data-backed recommendations to renew, consolidate, replace, or exit tools

Cost Optimization & Operational Excellence
  • Analyze usage, licensing, and spend data to eliminate shelfware and right-size subscriptions
  • Identify opportunities to consolidate redundant tools and streamline the tech stack
  • Review invoices for accuracy and compliance with negotiated terms
  • Maintain a clean, accurate inventory of contracts, entitlements, pricing, and renewal timelines

Data & Executive Reporting
  • Build dashboards and reporting that provide visibility into SaaS spend, utilization trends, and optimization opportunities
  • Deliver insights that inform leadership and executive-level decisions

Governance & Risk Alignment
  • Partner with IT Security and Legal to ensure compliance, risk mitigation, and data privacy standards are met

What You Bring:
  • Strong analytical rigor with the ability to translate data into actionable recommendations
  • Confidence engaging directly with vendors, functional leaders, and executives
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
  • High attention to detail and strong organizational discipline
  • Ability to balance strategic thinking with hands-on operational execution

Experience & Background:

Required
  • Bachelor’s degree in Business, Finance, Supply Chain, Information Systems, Operations, or related field (OR equivalent experience)
  • 5+ years of experience in SaaS vendor management, business systems, finance operations, or a related area
  • Deep understanding of SaaS licensing models, subscription management, and contract structures
  • Proven experience leading SaaS renewals and commercial negotiations

Preferred
  • Experience in a SaaS-heavy or technology-driven organization
  • Familiarity with compliance frameworks (SOC 2, GDPR, ISO 27001)
  • Experience with SaaS/vendor management platforms (Productiv, Ramp, Coupa, Ariba, Ironclad, Zip, SAP, or similar)
  • Experience working within Salesforce and/or NetSuite ecosystems
