Project Specialist, Vendor Partner Program

Are you ready to jumpstart your career at the intersection of technology, retail strategy, and relationship management? At Staples, we are redefining the B2B experience, and our Vendor Partnership Program (VPP) is the engine powering that transformation. As a Project Specialist, you will step into a high-impact role where you act as the vital link between our most strategic suppliers and our internal merchandising, marketing, and sales teams. This is a unique opportunity to gain end-to-end exposure to how a global business functions, giving you a front-row seat to the collaborative efforts that drive our sales growth and market alignment.

In this role, you won’t just be managing data; you will be orchestrating success. You will take ownership of program initiatives, ensuring that every campaign and partnership milestone is executed with precision and flair. We are looking for a proactive problem-solver who is eager to dive into the technical side of vendor management and leverage data to tell a compelling business story. If you are a recent graduate or early-career professional looking for a fast-paced environment where your voice is heard and your contributions directly impact the bottom line, we invite you to help us build the future of Staples.
