Vendor Manager - (AMP Bank Technology)
AMP
If you live in Australia or New Zealand, you've likely heard of AMP. But at a time when society is changing, we are too. We're now a nimbler business with new leadership and thinking.
For us, these are exciting times. There's a real potential for big thinkers to help us redefine what financial services could be. And turn our legacy into something even more positive and powerful for the future.
Help people create their tomorrow, while you create yours
We help people with their banking, super, retirement and finances. Through upturns, downturns, recessions, and major life transitions. Every day, we help people see and make more of their financial potential, so that they can create their tomorrow. And we've been doing it for over 170 years.
If we do our job well, we genuinely add to the prosperity of our country and its people.
How you'll make an impact
At AMP, strong strategic partnerships are critical to the way we deliver technology outcomes and create value across the organisation. As Vendor Manager, you will play a pivotal role in shaping and managing these partnerships, ensuring our vendors and service providers consistently deliver exceptional service, innovation and value. Working within the Bank Technology team, you'll become the trusted link between AMP and a diverse portfolio of strategic partners, driving accountability, managing performance, and ensuring vendors remain aligned to both operational priorities and long-term business objectives.
This is far more than a traditional supplier management role. You'll influence how AMP leverages its external partnerships to enable critical banking, lending, financial crime, data and integration capabilities. By balancing commercial outcomes, risk management, governance and relationship building, you'll identify opportunities to improve service delivery, drive efficiencies, manage vendor risk and unlock innovation that helps AMP continue its digital transformation journey
What you'll bring to the role
You are a commercially minded relationship builder who understands how to create value through strong vendor partnerships. With experience across vendor management, procurement, contract management or supplier governance, you know how to navigate complex stakeholder environments while maintaining a strong focus on service outcomes, compliance, and business performance. You'll bring a collaborative approach, exceptional communication skills and the confidence to influence both internal stakeholders and external partners.
To be successful, you'll bring experience managing contracts, monitoring vendor performance against SLAs and KPIs, supporting procurement activities and ensuring compliance with risk and governance requirements. You'll combine strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities with excellent organisational skills, enabling you to manage multiple priorities while identifying opportunities for continuous improvement, cost optimisation and operational excellence. Previous experience within technology, financial services, or other complex regulated environments will be highly regarded
You'll thrive here if…
If you can adapt from BAU to the ambiguous with ease, you'll do well here. Change is never easy, so bring your commitment, grit and growth mindset.
Because we run lean, you'll be expected to jump in and deliver across a variety of areas. Meaning, you'll be closer to the action and executive decisions that influence where we go next.
If you're someone that can hold their own, you'll find AMP quite liberating.
Why we think you'll love working at AMP
Doing what we've always done is not an option, so your clever ideas will get airtime here. You'll be encouraged to speak up and try new things. If they don't work, we move on - better for it.
We know there's no one way of doing things. So, you won't have to sacrifice who you are or how you work to fit in here. We're inclusive and flexible in many of the ways you'd expect. And in some of the ways you wouldn't. As long as your health and wellbeing come first - at home and at work.
In fact, most of what makes AMP such a welcoming, enjoyable place to work are our people. Wherever you go, you'll find moments to connect, feel valued and do meaningful work.
Whether it's through our first-class leaders who are invested in you and your success. Through year-round opportunities to volunteer, fundraise and give back to the community. Or in the everyday challenges you face as we work together to strengthen this great organisation. Challenges that will stretch you, amplify your potential and compound the impact you have.
We believe in the power of inclusion and diversity
We're dedicated to fostering inclusion, diversity, and a warm feeling of belonging at AMP. It sparks creativity, ignites innovation, and turns up the dial on the quality of our decisions and performance. This not only makes our workplace more engaged, but also leads to better connections with our customers.
