Key Responsibilities

  • 1. Supplier due diligence
  • Operate and continuously improve a risk-tiered due diligence framework covering financial standing, information security, data protection, sanctions/financial crime and ESG.
  • Ensure every critical supplier is assessed before contract signature and re-assessed on an agreed cycle.
  • Maintain a clear, documented risk position for each supplier, with escalation routes for high-risk findings.
  • 2. Supplier onboarding
  • Deliver a single, documented onboarding route from supplier request through to approved supplier record.
  • Set and meet onboarding SLAs; prevent unapproved spend entering the business.
  • Act as the point of contact for the business on "how do I onboard this supplier?"
  • 3. In-contract management of services received
  • Own the performance cadence for contracted services: SLA/KPI reporting, service reviews, issue and remediation tracking.
  • Evidence that the Group receives the service it is paying for and drive corrective action where it does not.
  • Track contractual obligations on both sides and flag under-delivery, scope creep or unbilled change.
  • 4. Regulatory and security compliance
  • Evidence supplier compliance with TSA obligations, ISO 27001 controls and wider regulatory requirements.
  • Maintain an audit-ready evidence trail; support internal and external audits and customer assurance requests.
  • Keep the supplier control environment current as regulations and the supplier base change.
  • 5. Vanta set-up and ongoing use
  • Lead the set-up, configuration and rollout of Vanta for supplier management and contract management.
  • Keep supplier records, controls, evidence and contract data complete and current within the platform.
  • Train and support users across the business; drive adoption so Vanta is the single source of truth.
  • 6. Contract management and renewals
  • Maintain a complete contract register with owner, value, term, notice periods and key dates.
  • Run a forward-looking renewals pipeline so no contract auto-renews by default and every renewal is a deliberate commercial decision.
  • Support the Group Procurement Director on renegotiation, consolidation and savings opportunities.

Skills, Knowledge and Expertise

  • Essential:
  • Proven experience in supplier / third-party risk management or procurement operations.
  • Hands-on supplier due diligence and onboarding in a regulated environment.
  • Working knowledge of ISO 27001 and information security assessment of suppliers.
  • Contract management experience: registers, obligations, renewals and negotiation support.
  • Confident using GRC or supplier management platforms (Vanta or similar).
  • Strong data discipline and accurate record keeping.
  • Desirable:
  • Experience of businesses with requirements of regulatory compliance e.g. TSA ISO27001 or similar
  • Experience implementing a new system and driving adoption across a business.
