Are you a Supplier Risk professional that is keen to build a modern third‑party risk function from the ground up? Our client supplier base is scaling fast, doubling today and with Day‑2 suppliers set to triple.

We’re looking for a Senior Supplier Risk Analyst who loves ownership, can make smart risk calls at pace, and wants the satisfaction of putting robust frameworks, tooling and controls in place that stick.

Key Responsibilities

Own supplier onboarding & due diligence across all tiers; financial, operational, information security, regulatory and geopolitical checks.
Monitor and assure third parties continuously, with triggers for escalation, exit and contingency planning built into the control set.
Streamline sign‑off by acting as delegated authority for lower‑level risks, freeing capacity for material decisions.
Lead tooling & admin uplift: shape workflows, controls and MI, drive automation and auditability.
Report with confidence: produce clear, insight‑rich risk reporting and present to Exec audiences.

What We’re Looking For

Financial Services experience is essential
Hands‑on third‑party/supplier risk expertise (onboarding, ongoing monitoring, assurance)
Risk & compliance background with strong judgment and a bias for action
Proven ability to design frameworks and processes
Confidence to make calls and own outcomes, plus the communication skills to bring stakeholders with you.
Comfortable presenting reports with Senior Stakeholders and up to Exec level

This is a fantastic opportunity to lead, simplify and scale third party risk processes in a growing organisation with a collaborative team that values ownership, pragmatism and momentum.
