## About the role

## What they're looking for

- Own the third-party risk management program: vendor intake and tiering, assessments, dispositions, and the register of critical suppliers and their agreements
- Turn recurring patterns across questionnaires, audits, and vendor reviews into standing artifacts, self-serve packages, and control improvements, so the same question is answered once
- Work from a single unified controls catalog across frameworks, and push mapping and implementation defects back to the governance side rather than maintaining framework-specific lists
- Produce findings and remediation evidence that survive external re-test, and feed the corrective-action process with root causes rather than symptoms
- Guide the public-sector compliance analyst's work on assessor relationships and customer-facing federal diligence, with technical scoping decisions staying with the Head of Governance & Trust
- Mentor the analysts on the team, give and receive feedback in both directions, and help build the team as it grows
