  • · Act as a TPRM subject matter expert during sales and solution design engagements, advising clients on program structure, governance models, and risk lifecycle best practices.
  • · Lead discovery conversations focused on TPRM maturity, regulatory drivers, risk domains, and operating models, not just product capabilities.

  • · Design and present solution architectures that reflect real-world TPRM program challenges, tradeoffs, and operational realities.
  • · Support executive-level discussions by persuasively articulating program value, defensibility, and audit/regulatory readiness, not just system functionality.
  • · Partner with Sales to support complex enterprise pursuits by contributing TPRM credibility, program insight, and risk-based storytelling.
  • · Collaborate with Implementation and Customer teams to ensure continuity from solution vision to program execution.
  • · Provide ongoing feedback to Product and Strategy teams based on observed gaps, emerging regulations, and practitioner needs.
  • · Ability to travel up to 25%.

  • o Ongoing monitoring and reporting
  • · Strong understanding of regulatory expectations and examiner/audit scrutiny related to third-party risk.
  • · Ability to persuasively communicate complex risk concepts clearly to both practitioners and executives.
