Since 1954, we’ve grown into a global community—with a thriving e-commerce business, multiple catalogs, over 50 stores, a peerless national sales force, plus international offices that support our preeminent supply chain division. But today we’re working better, smarter and faster than ever—and setting our sights even higher. We’re building an infrastructure designed for scalability, embracing data-driven decision-making and using technology to improve efficiency and ensure the best tools for the best work. Most importantly, we continue to invest in a diverse team of inquisitive top talent who fuel each other’s passions and curiosity, take risks, try new things and believe that every new day brings opportunities for growth.

Job Description

We are currently seeking a Vendor Manager to join our Global Sourcing team. In this role, you will lead complex, cross-functional sourcing projects that support vendor performance, cost management, product changes and key business initiatives. You will partner closely with Global Sourcing, Merchandising, Quality, RD&D, Supply Chain and other internal teams to drive projects from planning through execution with limited supervision.

Managing domestic and import supplier networks across Merchandising, and OEM categories.
Serving as the primary vendor contact, handling daily communication, performance follow-up, and escalations
Driving resolution of supplier-related issues, including quality, cost, lead times, product changes, backorders, packaging, testing, compliance, and operational escalations
Evaluating business needs independently and resolving complex challenges such as backorders, co-op negotiations, pricing strategies, and vendor cost reviews
Partnering strategically with Merchandising and cross-functional teams to influence sourcing and product decisions across item selection, onboarding, capability reviews, and product lifecycle changes
Balancing competing priorities and delivering solutions while leading strategic initiatives, including ERP implementations, distribution projects, vendor updates, bids, reporting, and process improvements
Acting as a subject matter expert by supporting team members, sharing best practices, guiding complex supplier matters, and improving tools and processes

Qualifications

Required:

Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience
2+ years in project management or sourcing roles
Mandarin proficiency
Advanced Excel (pivot tables, lookups, data analysis)

Preferred:

4+ years of relevant experience
SAP experience
Familiarity with RFQ/RFP processes, pricing analysis and vendor onboarding
Experience with Power BI or Tableau

What Sets You Apart

Strong communication and vendor relationship skills
Ability to manage competing priorities in a fast-paced environment
Negotiation experience across cost, quality and operational issues
Cross-functional influence and problem-solving ability
Experience working with global suppliers and multicultural teams
