  • Stakeholder collaboration and communication:
    • Build and maintain strong relationships with internal stakeholders across departments such as Legal, Procurement, Information Security, and Business Units.
    • Provide TPRM guidance and training to Vendor Relationship Owners and business partners on risk management practices.
    • Communicate identified risks, assessment results, and mitigation strategies to stakeholders, including senior management, clearly and concisely.
  • Ongoing monitoring and remediation:
    • Track identified risks associated with third parties and ensure timely reviews are performed.
    • Monitor key supplier performance against established SLAs and regulatory requirements.
    • Track and collaborate with internal partners and vendors to remediate any risk-related issues.

  • Working knowledge of contract management principles and practices, including contract negotiation and analysis.
  • Excellent communication skills, both written and verbal, with the ability to effectively articulate security control requirements, assessment results, and risk considerations to diverse audiences.
  • Strong analytical, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to digest and analyze complex information with attention to detail and accuracy.
