Vendor Manager

Fuze Health is looking for a Vendor Manager to join our Procurement & Vendor Management team. This is a high-ownership role for someone who thrives in ambiguity, moves fast, and can take a project from zero to done without hand-holding. You'll be managing a broad portfolio of technology and services vendors across our five entities, driving governance into an estimated $10-15M of currently unmanaged spend, and working directly with Legal, Finance, Compliance, Security, and business leadership to make sure our vendor relationships are structured, compliant, and delivering value.
