We're looking for a strong analytical thinker who can assess vendor security risks, interpret technical documentation and turn findings into practical recommendations. Someone who's comfortable reviewing security reports, asking thoughtful questions and communicating clearly with both technical teams and business stakeholders.

• Collaborate with third-party risk management, cybersecurity, privacy and business stakeholders to clarify assessment questions and support consistent decision-making
• Communicate assessment findings and recommendations to vendors and internal stakeholders in clear, practical language
• Contribute to a high-volume assessment environment by managing priorities, documenting rationale and escalating risks or exceptions when needed

What you'll bring to the team – Required qualifications

• A bachelor's degree in computer science, information systems, cybersecurity, information security or a related discipline
• At least four years of related experience in information security, cybersecurity, technology risk, vendor risk management, security governance, risk and compliance, or a related technical risk field (or an equivalent combination of education and experience)
• Strong knowledge of information security concepts, controls and risk assessment practices
• Experience interpreting technical security documentation and assessing vendor controls against defined requirements
• Ability to assess risks, identify control gaps and provide practical recommendations that support business and vendor decisions
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain technical security topics to non-technical and senior stakeholders

Preferred qualifications

• Experience reviewing SOC 2 reports or other third-party assurance reports
• Experience in third-party risk management, vendor security assessments, security compliance or a regulated environment
