Procurement Operations Specialist

The opportunityWe are seeking a detail-oriented Temporary Procurement Third-Party Risk Analyst to manage our vendor risk assessment lifecycle. As a critical part of the Procurement team, you will ensure that all third-party engagements align with our corporate standards for privacy, compliance, and sustainability. You will be responsible for evaluating vendor risk tiers, conducting deep-dive assessments, and partnering with internal and external stakeholders to mitigate potential vulnerabilities before contracts are finalized.

The successful candidate will be expected to maintain the current 10-day SLA while working toward the end-of-year goal of 8-day turnaround per assessment. They must operate with high autonomy, determining when a "No Review" closure is appropriate versus when a "Full Assessment" is required.

What you'll be doing

• Risk Tiering & Initial Analysis: Review incoming Third-Party Risk Assessment (TPRA) tickets via Jira to determine preliminary risk levels (No, Low, Medium, or High) based on spend, data types, and vendor location.


• Multi-Disciplinary Review: Evaluate vendor responses across several key domains: Privacy, Corporate Compliance, ESG & Sustainability, and Health & Safety


• Risk Mitigation: Actively engage with vendors and internal Business Partners to resolve identified "red flags." This includes requesting clarifying information or supplemental questionnaires for medium and high-risk areas.


• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Escalate complex risks to Legal and TPRA Leads; coordinate with the Contracts (PCA) team to ensure risk findings are reflected in final agreements.

What we're looking for

• Procurement Process Knowledge: A strong understanding of the Source-to-Pay lifecycle and how risk management integrates into the purchasing process.


• Risk Methodology: Experience applying tiered risk frameworks to determine revalidation frequencies (e.g., annual for High, triennial for Low).


• Analytical Rigor: Ability to review complex documents (e.g., Trust Centers, Security Portals) to find compliance gaps.


• Professional Communication: Ability to use Slack, Gmail, and formal reminders to move unresponsive vendors through the process.


• Attention to Detail: Precision in logging closure notes and revalidation dates to ensure audit readiness.

You might also have

• AI Research: Experience using AI tools to conduct independent research on vendor risk areas when vendor responses are lacking.


• Global Compliance: Knowledge of specific international high-risk country lists and embargoed regions.


• ESG Specialization: Familiarity with EcoVadis or CDP disclosure scorecards.
