About the Role
Vixxo is seeking a full-time Service Provider Manager out of our Colwich, KS office to help build, retain, and improve a qualified network of Service Providers across assigned regions, customers, and trades.
Vixxo is pivoting how we deliver facilities services. We are moving toward trade-specialized, AI-first operating models because they create stronger performance, better customer outcomes, clearer accountability, and deeper provider relationships. The Service Provider Manager is a critical role in that model.
This role is responsible for the growth, usage, performance, contract compliance, pricing discipline, and retention of the Service Provider network. The Service Provider Manager negotiates with Service Providers, establishes durable partnerships, supports Vixxo Service Centers and Account Operations, and acts as a strategic liaison with Service Providers for the overall delivery of service.
The difference in this version of the role is the operating standard. The Service Provider Manager is not simply managing coverage files, reacting to escalations, or processing provider requests. This role uses AI agents and AI-assisted workflows to identify coverage gaps, provider performance patterns, pricing risk, compliance issues, and next-best actions faster than a traditional process can.
The goal is to reduce cost from the Service Provider base while improving service quality, customer outcomes, provider accountability, and long-term network health.
Who Will Love This Job
- A problem solver. You ask the right questions, uncover root cause, and use data and AI-assisted workflows to get to a clear, well-thought-out result.
- A people person. You are customer-focused, relationship-oriented, and able to understand the needs and pressures of Service Providers, operators, and account teams.
- A self-starter. You are not comfortable with the status quo. You seek continuous improvement, find better ways to work, and do not wait for someone else to solve recurring problems.
- An AI-first operator. You are comfortable using AI tools as part of the daily rhythm of the job and are curious about how agents can make provider management faster, smarter, and more consistent.
What You Will Do
Coverage Management
- Create, monitor, and manage Service Provider coverage for new and existing clients.
- Identify gaps in service and coordinate solutions with Vixxo Service Centers, Account Operations, sourcing, compliance, and trade leaders.
- Use Excel, system data, and AI-assisted analysis to manage datasets, model coverage options, and evaluate financial impact.
- Maintain practical coverage views by region, customer, trade, line of service, service level, provider capacity, and provider performance.
- Recommend coverage actions that improve service quality, reduce cost, and protect customer commitments.
Territory Management
- Recruit, retain, and develop independent Service Providers for emergency/reactive repair service and scheduled maintenance services.
- Build durable Service Provider relationships across assigned regions and lines of service.
- Understand provider strengths, constraints, responsiveness, rate posture, capacity, and relationship health.
- Segment providers based on performance, reliability, strategic value, development needs, and exit risk.
- Partner with Service Centers and Account Operations to ensure the right providers are being used for the right work.
Contract Compliance and Pricing
- Ensure Service Providers understand the terms of the Vixxo agreement and their contractual requirements.
- Confirm Service Providers meet required license, certification, insurance, documentation, and customer-specific requirements.
- Drive compliance with company and customer initiatives, including mobile utilization and other required operating standards.
- Negotiate competitive contractual terms between Vixxo and Service Providers.
- Evaluate rate and pricing requests using regional market context, historical rate movement, service performance, customer contract alignment, and margin impact.
- Escalate pricing, NTE, compliance, or margin risks with clear evidence and recommendation.
Provider Performance and Relationship Management
- Monitor provider performance across SLA adherence, first-time fix, recall/callback trends, quote turnaround, ETA discipline, completion quality, communication quality, and responsiveness.
- Use AI-assisted monitoring to surface provider risk early and convert risk signals into clear actions.
- Conduct structured Service Provider business reviews with top and at-risk providers, with action items tracked to closure.
- Coach providers directly when performance, communication, compliance, or pricing issues emerge.
- Protect long-term provider relationships while holding a clear standard for performance and accountability.
Internal Partnership
- Support Vixxo Service Centers and act as a liaison with Service Providers at the strategic level for overall service delivery.
- Partner with Account Operations on customer needs, coverage health, provider escalations, and service improvement opportunities.
- Work with sourcing and compliance to recruit, onboard, and maintain qualified providers.
- Partner with trade pod leaders where assigned so provider strategy is connected to daily execution, not managed in a separate lane.
- Communicate provider risks, coverage gaps, and recommended actions clearly and promptly.
AI-First Operating Standard
This role operates with AI agents from day one. The agents are not a productivity perk. They are part of the operating model.
Examples of AI-assisted workflows for this role include:
- Coverage-gap detection by region, trade, customer, line of service, and service level.
- Provider performance monitoring across SLA, first-time fix, recall rate, quote turnaround, ETA discipline, communication quality, and mobile utilization.
- Next-best-action recommendations for provider follow-up, coaching, sourcing, rate review, compliance remediation, or exit planning.
- Provider business review prep, including scorecards, trend analysis, open actions, pricing history, and relationship notes.
- Rate and pricing review support using regional benchmarks, historical rate movement, contract alignment, and margin impact.
- Compliance monitoring for license, certification, insurance, documentation, and customer-specific requirements.
- Outreach drafting for provider follow-ups, business review recaps, corrective action plans, and documentation requests.
- Weekly provider network health updates for Service Provider Management, Service Centers, Account Operations, and trade pod leaders.
You think with agents. You use them to find patterns sooner, prepare stronger provider conversations, make better recommendations, and close the loop faster. You also improve the agents by giving feedback on missed signals, weak recommendations, and workflow gaps.

Confirm the degree requirement is explicit
For H-1B specialty occupation approval, the job posting must require a specific bachelor's degree, not just prefer one. Roles listed as open to any business degree face higher USCIS scrutiny. Ask the recruiter how they've worded the LCA before accepting an offer.
Target large enterprise employers first
Companies managing complex supplier networks, such as those in manufacturing, healthcare systems, or enterprise software, file more LCAs for this role than mid-sized firms. Larger procurement operations are more likely to have established immigration programs and in-house counsel.
Align your degree to the analytical side of the role
Supply chain management, operations research, business analytics, and information systems degrees map cleanly to Vendor Management Analyst duties. A finance or economics degree can work if your coursework covered procurement, contracts, or quantitative analysis relevant to vendor oversight.
Understand the LCA prevailing wage requirement
Your employer must certify to the Department of Labor that your offered compensation meets the prevailing wage for the role and location. This is filed before your visa petition. Roles in higher-cost metros typically require certification at a higher wage level.
Ask about cap-exempt employer options
Universities, nonprofit research organizations, and government-affiliated entities are exempt from the H-1B lottery. Vendor management functions exist in procurement and operations at these institutions. A cap-exempt sponsor means no lottery risk and year-round filing windows.
Use Migrate Mate to filter by sponsorship history
Not every employer lists visa sponsorship in job postings. Migrate Mate surfaces roles from employers with verified sponsorship track records for analytical positions, so you spend time applying to companies already set up to file a petition on your behalf.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Vendor Management Analyst qualify as an H-1B specialty occupation?
It can, but approval depends on how the role is defined. USCIS requires that a bachelor's degree in a specific field, such as supply chain, business analytics, or operations management, is a normal minimum for entry into the position. Generalist postings that accept any degree weaken the petition. Employers who document that the role involves complex contract analysis, risk modeling, or system-level procurement work have a stronger case.
Which industries sponsor Vendor Management Analysts most often?
Technology companies, hospital systems, financial services firms, and large-scale manufacturers are the most consistent sponsors. These industries manage high-volume or high-risk supplier relationships that require dedicated analytical oversight. Federal contractors also sponsor this role, and some qualify as cap-exempt employers. You can browse currently open sponsored Vendor Management Analyst roles on Migrate Mate, filtered by employer type and location.
What degree do I need to qualify for H-1B sponsorship in this role?
A bachelor's degree in supply chain management, business analytics, operations management, information systems, or finance is the most defensible educational background. USCIS expects the degree to relate directly to the duties performed. If your degree is in a tangentially related field, your employer's attorney will need to document how your coursework maps to vendor analysis, contract evaluation, or supplier performance management.
Can I get sponsored for an L-1 visa as a Vendor Management Analyst?
Yes, if you've worked for the same multinational employer abroad for at least one continuous year within the past three years. L-1 visaB applies if your role involves specialized knowledge of the company's vendor systems, procurement platforms, or supplier contracts. L-1A is less common for this title unless you're managing a vendor management team. The L-1 has no annual cap, so there's no lottery exposure.
How does the H-1B lottery affect my chances of getting sponsored in this role?
If your employer is cap-subject, your petition enters the annual H-1B lottery, which has historically selected around 25% of registrations in recent fiscal years. Losing the lottery doesn't end your options. You can pursue cap-exempt employers, explore L-1 eligibility through a multinational transfer, or consider O-1 visa status if you have documented expertise in procurement or vendor strategy. Timing your job search around the January-to-March registration window also matters.
What is the prevailing wage requirement for sponsored Vendor Management Analyst jobs?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
