  • Support quality reviews of assessment reports and improve consistency across deliverables.
  • Identify opportunities to streamline intake, assessment, scoring, reporting, and monitoring workflows.
  • Use AI-assisted tools responsibly to improve review speed while validating accuracy and completeness.

QUALIFICATIONS
  • 3+ years of experience in GRC, cybersecurity, IT audit, operational risk, technology assurance, information security, or related risk functions.
  • Experience with supplier risk, vendor risk, third-party risk, supply chain risk, or security assessment workflows.
  • Strong understanding of information security controls, risk management, IT general controls, and audit concepts.
  • Ability to review vendor security documentation and identify control gaps, risk themes, and remediation needs.
  • Familiarity with AI-enabled enterprise technologies and related risk considerations.
  • Experience using AI-assisted tools for analysis, documentation, reporting, or workflow improvement.
  • Strong written communication, stakeholder management, and presentation skills.
  • Ability to manage multiple reviews while maintaining quality and meeting deadlines.
  • Bachelor's degree in cybersecurity, information technology, computer science, MIS, or a related field.

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE
  • CTPRP, CRISC, CISA, CISM, or similar certification.
  • AI governance, AI risk, or emerging technology risk experience.
  • Familiarity with cybersecurity, AI governance, or third-party risk frameworks.
  • Experience supporting automation, process improvement, or AI-enabled workflow initiatives.
  • Consulting, advisory, or client-facing risk experience.

What Success Looks Like:
  • Clear, consistent, and business-ready vendor risk assessments.
  • Strong collaboration across business, risk, security, procurement, and technology teams.
  • Practical risk recommendations based on data exposure, connectivity, controls, and business use case.
