THE POSITION SUMMARY

The Senior Director / VP, Global Vendor Strategy & Nearshore/Offshore Operations owns the design, governance, and economic performance of Oxford's Associate Vendor (AV) model and its global delivery footprint - encompassing nearshore, offshore, and H-1B supply channels that today support a meaningful and growing share of Oxford's business, but currently operate without a defined structure, consistent contractual treatment, or measured economics.

This role elevates AV from a decentralized, recruiter-managed practice to a strategically governed global program. The mandate spans three distinct use cases - payroll/passthrough, cost-optimized nearshore/offshore and H-1B supply, and nearshore/offshore capability extension - each requiring its own contractual structure, performance standard, and margin profile. At the executive level, this leader is accountable for building Oxford's nearshore/offshore delivery strategy, closing the margin gap between AV and core Oxford delivery, correcting recruiter incentives that currently reward AV placements identically to full-cycle recruiting, and materially reducing the client, legal, and brand risk created by treating fundamentally different vendor relationships as one undifferentiated program.

The scope of this role - governance-only versus governance with delivery-build responsibility - will be finalized alongside Oxford's selected AV operating model direction. This executive will serve as Oxford's internal authority on global delivery economics, offshore/nearshore market dynamics, and vendor partnership strategy.
