  • Review and challenge risk assessments and due diligence results for completeness and accuracy.
  • Establish continuous monitoring processes, including performance metrics, SLAs, and risk indicators.
  • Track, report, and escalate identified issues, control gaps, and remediation activities.
  • Ensure timely resolution of findings related to third-party risk from audits, regulatory exams, and internal reviews.
  • Partner with business units to provide guidance on third-party selection, contracting, and risk mitigation strategies.
  • Maintain and enhance TPRM systems/tools and vendor inventory.
  • Develop and deliver key risk indicators (KRIs), dashboards, and reporting for senior leadership.

Education and Experience:

  • Seven or more years of experience in third party or related risk management roles (third-party risk management, auditing, operational risk, or compliance-related experience).
  • Demonstrated experience building or managing a Third Party Risk Management program.
