About the role

As Mercury prepares to become a bank, our Third Party Risk Management (TPRM) program is in active development to meet bank-level regulatory expectations. As an early member of a growing TPRM team, you’ll help run the program day-to-day and contribute how it matures, bringing your own judgment and point of view to a function that is usually more rigidly defined, with room to be creative and make your mark. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • 4+ years of third party risk management experience, including 2+ years in a regulated financial services environment (bank, or fintech working with bank partners)
  • Hands-on experience completing third party risk assessments across multiple risk domains, not only security
  • Experience reviewing and challenging first-line risk work with evidence-based pushback
  • Experience supporting audits or exams of a TPRM program (gathering evidence, responding to requests, following up on findings)
  • Experience building or maintaining TPRM reporting and metrics, with attention to data accuracy
  • Solid program and project management skills, with experience supporting a program that spans multiple cross-functional components and driving process improvements through to implementation
