Jasper Colin is a high‑growth, global data intelligence firm that helps organizations across B2B, Consumer, and Healthcare landscapes make better decisions faster through integrated solutions which bring together strategy, execution, data science, and storytelling.

• Develop and execute a global partner and supply strategy that brings together the best‑in‑class sample providers into the Jasper Colin ecosystem.
• Work closely with sales and leadership to support current needs and stay ahead of future supply needs.
• Develop and maintain a scalable and repeatable system for conducting needs analysis, partner discovery, partner scoring and prioritization, technical integrations, and continuous partner quality assessments.
• Maintain a constant pulse on the partner landscape across the full taxonomy of partner types, building and managing a pipeline of qualified new partners ahead of demand.
• Establish and own the quality governance framework across all supply partners, including data acceptance thresholds, fraud detection criteria, and suspension or decertification processes differentiated by partner classification.
• Build and maintain real‑time partner scorecards tracking KPIs for each partner and partner taxonomy.
• Collaborate with technology and operations teams to define the rules, thresholds, and triggers used for partner usage across the platform.

• Own the full partner onboarding lifecycle from initial due diligence and commercial negotiation through integration, capability certification, SLAs, and go‑live approaches.
• Proactively monitor delivery performance against SLAs, manage escalations and remediation plans, capability reviews, and own partner performance reviews.
• Negotiate and manage commercial agreements: rate cards, quality SLAs, API integration terms, volume commitments, etc.
• Build and maintain the dynamic pricing model that connects supply costs to client‑facing estimates, ensuring bids are competitive, accurate, and protected against margin loss.

• Build and lead the India‑based supply operations team responsible for day‑to‑day partner coordination, fielding support, and operational monitoring.
• Support sales teams in client conversations where supply expertise is needed.
• Build and maintain an internal system for capturing and sharing partner knowledge that includes lessons learned, quality findings, pricing intelligence so the organization learns from every study.
• Track and report on market pricing dynamics, competitor commercial structures, and supply cost trends, providing actionable intelligence to leadership on a regular cadence.

• 10+ years of market research experience.
• 5+ years in supply, panel operations, or research partnership roles.
• Deep familiarity with the panel supply ecosystem across the B2B, Consumer, and Healthcare landscapes – who owns sample, who aggregates, who the top quality suppliers are, fraud detection practices, etc.
• Hands‑on experience with large‑scale commercial and contract negotiations along with financial analysis of supplier costs, margin estimates, and volumes.
• Hands‑on experience with global and local partner integrations via technical and non‑technical workflows that establish efficient and frictionless experiences for customers and internal team members.

• Bias for action; take an imperfect first step rather than spend weeks designing a perfect one.
• Build from the ground up, find the problem energizing, not exhausting.
• Fail fast and learn faster, treat failed experiments as data, course‑correct quickly, and do not repeat the same mistake twice.
• Comfortable with ambiguity; make a call, own it, and adjust when new information arrives.
• Think commercially and creatively at the same time with the impact on the customer and business as the north star.
• Hungry in the way that matters; collaborate across the organization, genuinely motivated by building something that works and seeing its impact for the business and customers.
• People trust you quickly; communicate directly, follow through, and bring others along rather than operating as a solo expert.
• Love building connections and relationships and partnerships from scratch with colleagues, customers, and partners.

• Medical, Dental, and Vision Insurance
• 401K with company match
• Unlimited PTO
• Retention Bonus
• Other benefits that support an employee’s growth both personally and professionally
