Gong is seeking an experienced Third Party Risk Manager to join our Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) team. In this role, you will own and mature Gong's third-party risk management program, ensuring that vendors, suppliers, and partners meet our security, privacy, compliance, and operational resilience standards.

You will partner cross-functionally with Procurement, Legal, Security, Privacy, and business stakeholders to assess, monitor, and mitigate risks across the full vendor lifecycle.
