Description
TPRM Continuous Monitoring Analyst
The TPRM Continuous Monitoring Analyst is responsible for the ongoing oversight of the client's critical third-party vendors, ensuring their risk posture remains aligned with the organization's risk appetite, internal policies, and regulatory expectations throughout the vendor lifecycle. This role plays a key part in safeguarding the organization by conducting periodic reassessments, trigger-based reviews, and continuous monitoring of vendor controls across multiple risk domains -including information security, privacy, business continuity, operational resilience, and compliance. The analyst leverages risk intelligence tooling (e.g., Supply Wisdom and Black Kite) to detect material changes in vendor risk, triage alerts, and drive timely remediation, escalation, and reporting.

Escalation & Communication
