- Conducts regular business reviews with key vendors to assess performance, pricing competitiveness, and alignment with growth plans, and identifies backup vendors to reduce single-source risk in high-growth categories.
- Partners with the Value Analysis Committee and surgeon champions to evaluate new technology, standardize implant systems, and rationalize the vendor portfolio without compromising surgeon preference or patient outcomes.
- Tracks market trends, new technology entrants, and competitor pricing benchmarks in the orthopedic and spine device markets.
Analytics & Continuous Improvement
- Owns supply chain cost-savings targets and reports on realized savings, cost avoidance, and contract compliance to executive leadership.
- Builds and maintains spend analytics and dashboards by category, vendor, and surgeon to inform negotiation strategy and standardization efforts.
- Partners with Finance on capital equipment budgeting, business case development, and lease-versus-purchase analysis.
- Consults regularly with hospital and Group office personnel on contracting issues, operational challenges, and program analysis.
Strategy & Growth
- Evaluates and stands up sourcing processes, systems, and contract infrastructure that can support rapid onboarding of new locations, surgeons, or service lines without creating bottlenecks.
- Identifies opportunities for group purchasing organization (GPO) participation, national agreements, or multi-facility contracts that create leverage as the organization scales.
- Supports new facility due diligence and onboarding, including contract review, supplier rationalization, and adoption of standard processes and systems.
Supervisory Responsibilities
- Set clear goals and expectations; provide regular coaching, feedback, and performance reviews.
- Develop talent through mentoring, training, and career development initiatives.
- Promote a collaborative and engaging work environment that aligns with company values.
- Manage conflict and make timely decisions to maintain team focus and performance.
- Conduct regular one-on-one meetings, performance reviews, and development conversations.
