Description
We are looking for a Data Analyst to join an education-focused organization on a contract-to-permanent basis. This role will bring structure and visibility to contract and vendor data by turning scattered information into reliable insights that support renewal planning and procurement decisions. The person in this position will work closely with sourcing, software asset management, finance, and vendor management stakeholders to improve oversight of agreements and help the team operate more proactively. This opportunity is well suited for someone who combines strong analytical ability with hands-on experience in vendor contracts, renewals, and procure-to-pay environments.
Responsibilities:
Consolidate contract, procurement, finance, and usage information from multiple systems into organized datasets that support accurate tracking and reporting.
Review and cleanse existing records to improve data quality, identify gaps, and create a dependable foundation for renewal and vendor oversight activities.
Analyze upcoming contract expirations and renewal timelines to help the team prioritize actions and reduce reactive management of agreements.
Partner with sourcing leads, software asset management professionals, and vendor management stakeholders to evaluate vendor portfolios and support governance reviews.
Generate reports and spreadsheets that highlight contract status, vendor tiering, financial considerations, and lifecycle activity for decision-makers.
Extract and interpret information from platforms such as Coupa, ServiceNow, finance tools, and other contract repositories to build useful business insights.
Support vendor lifecycle and procure-to-pay analysis by identifying trends, tracking obligations, and improving visibility across active agreements.
Collaborate with internal teams and external vendors to validate contract details, resolve discrepancies, and maintain consistent records across systems.
Requirements
5+ years of experience in data analysis, contract administration, vendor management, procurement, or a related business function.
Proven background working with contract renewals, vendor contracts, and agreement tracking in a corporate or enterprise environment.
Strong Excel skills, including advanced formulas, large dataset management, and the ability to build practical reporting tools; VBA experience is a plus.
Experience pulling and reconciling data from procurement, finance, service management, or contract management systems such as Coupa or ServiceNow.
Solid understanding of procure-to-pay processes, vendor lifecycle management, and contract-related financial analysis.
Ability to organize ambiguous or fragmented information into clear, accurate, and actionable reporting.
Effective communication skills with the ability to work across cross-functional teams and interact professionally with vendors.
Familiarity with software asset management, licensing, or compliance-focused environments is preferred.
