The Role
We are seeking an experienced VP-level Third-Party Risk specialist to support the review, redesign and implementation of key third-party risk management processes across a large, complex and highly regulated financial services organisation.

The successful candidate will be responsible for aligning processes to industry best practice, emerging regulatory expectations and strategic business objectives, before supporting pilot execution, implementation planning and enterprise-wide rollout.
