Supplier Performance Review

About this task

This warehousing operator for e-commerce brands (201–500 employees) is looking for a senior Procurement & Vendor Manager for an ongoing part-time engagement of 1–2 h a week. Scorecards against service levels and complaints.

The company wants a senior person on this without carrying the cost of a full-time role. It moves goods for customers, so the data is operational and updated daily.

The work is fully remote, but the company can only contract people who live in Rhode Island, so this one is for residents there. Most people do this on weekday evenings; replies inside the working day are not expected.

What you deliver

• Prepare quarterly scorecards for 12 suppliers and hold review calls with the three weakest.
• Work logged against the agreed list, so the company contact can see progress without a call
• A written update every Monday with what was done, what is next and anything blocked
• A short handover note when the engagement pauses or ends

What a week looks like

• Daily: one hour at a time that suits you, inside the agreed window
• Friday: ten-minute sync if anything is blocked
• Monday: weekly summary posted to the shared thread

Duration: 8 weeks, renewable. Accepted when the company contact confirms the deliverable against the written checklist. One round of edits is included.
