• Supporting supplier risk assessments and ongoing monitoring
• Maintaining accurate supplier records, evidence and action logs
• Preparing information for governance and reporting
• Improving third-party risk processes, controls and documentation

What we’re looking for

You’ll need practical experience in supplier assurance, third-party risk, supplier governance, procurement risk or outsourcing. You’ll also bring:

• Experience of supplier due diligence, onboarding, monitoring or risk assessment
• Experience within financial services or another regulated sector, such as insurance
• Strong organisational and analytical skills, together with close attention to detail
• The judgement to recognise when an issue needs to be escalated
• Confidence working with different stakeholders and challenging incomplete evidence

Why Weatherbys?

Weatherbys has been family-owned since 1770, but we continue to evolve. You’ll join a collaborative business where people are trusted to contribute, supported in their development and able to make a visible difference.

This is a broad role within a small team, giving you exposure to different parts of third-party risk management and the opportunity to influence how our approach develops.

You’ll be trusted to contribute ideas, help improve how we work and develop your expertise through practical experience and relevant professional training.
