  • Collaborate with suppliers to identify and mitigate risks, focusing on critical suppliers.
  • Keep an updated record of all suppliers accessing, storing, processing, or providing critical services, including a risk register.
  • Deliver high-quality risk reports with actionable insights to aid senior business leaders in making informed risk decisions regarding supplier usage.
  • Monitor ongoing supplier compliance based on their risk profiles.
  • Work closely with relevant business units, legal, and procurement teams to ensure third-party risks are effectively managed throughout the supplier lifecycle.
