About this task

This boutique advisory firm (201–500 employees) is looking for a manager Operations Manager for a single piece of work with a fixed scope and a fixed price. Reviews vendors for cost, service and risk.

What you deliver

  • Review the top 15 vendors by spend, flag overlaps and renewals in the next 80 days and recommend savings.
  • A final note stating what was checked and what was left out of scope
  • A 20-minute walkthrough call, or a recorded screen share if you prefer
  • One round of edits after the company's review is included

How the work runs

  • Day 1: kickoff call and access to the files
  • Days 2 to 7: the work, with questions answered the same day
  • Last day: delivery and a short walkthrough

Duration: 1 to 2 weeks. Accepted on the company's written OK. If something is missed, you fix it in the same week at no extra charge to either side.
