- Join EY and help to build a better working world.
The risk landscape is continuously changing due to market volatility, geopolitical events, regulatory reform, cyber threats, and the rapid adoption of AI. At the same time, organizations rely more than ever on an expanding ecosystem of third parties to operate and grow. That reliance brings real value, but also exposure: disruptions, data and cyber incidents, regulatory scrutiny, and concentration risk that often sit outside an organization’s direct control. Clients are looking to move beyond point-in-time, questionnaire-driven third-party programs toward approaches that are connected, more continuous, and able to support better decisions across the third-party lifecycle – from sourcing and onboarding through ongoing monitoring and offboarding.
Achieving that requires both a strong understanding of how third-party risk should be managed and the ability to enable it through technology, including platforms like ServiceNow. As a member of our Risk Consulting practice, you will help clients assess, design, and transform their third-party risk management programs and the technology that powers them. You will bring a rare combination of TPRM domain knowledge and risk technology experience, allowing you to contribute across program design, process and operating model work, and platform implementation, and to help clients connect third-party risk with related disciplines such as procurement, cyber, operational resilience, enterprise risk, and compliance.
The opportunity This is an opportunity to grow both personally and professionally at a global, multi-disciplinary consulting firm. You will build and apply expertise in both third-party risk management and the technologies that enable it, helping clients use risk platforms, AI, and data across the third-party management lifecycle. You won’t only work within risk competencies. You’ll bring the breadth of the firm, working alongside procurement, legal, contracting, and many other teams to help clients set up end-to-end processes with third-party risk built in throughout the lifecycle. You will also have the opportunity to help clients shift to managed services models based on their needs and continue to optimize those capabilities. That breadth will speed up your development and position you as a trusted advisor who can connect what a program needs to achieve with how to make it happen.
- Your key responsibilities As our Risk Consulting capabilities continue to evolve and grow, we are seeking highly motivated Senior consultants who can support clients from design through implementation of their third-party risk programs.
- You will work with multi-disciplinary teams across the firm, both onshore and offshore, to help clients assess, design, and transform their programs end to end.
- That includes orchestrating third-party risk processes, putting technology to work, and moving from traditional point-in-time models to data-driven, real-time risk sensing.
- Assess current-state third-party risk programs against leading practices and regulatory expectations, and identify gaps and priorities Bring domain depth and sector-relevant solutions to tailor third-party risk programs to each client’s third-party ecosystem, regulatory environment, and business Design and enhance frameworks, operating models, and processes across the third-party lifecycle, from sourcing and onboarding through ongoing monitoring and offboarding Orchestrate third-party risk across connected functions such as procurement, contracting, cyber, resilience, and compliance Translate program design into technology solutions, supporting delivery on platforms like ServiceNow from requirements through design, build, test, and deployment Help clients use data, AI, and external risk intelligence to move toward continuous monitoring and real-time risk sensing Use AI in your own work to deliver faster, sharper insights, and help clients make the most of AI in their programs Interact directly with clients and support day-to-day execution between EY and client teams Develop team members and support business development, from proposals to building relationships that lead to future work Skills and attributes for success: Strong project management skills to deliver work from start to finish, including working directly with client teams Build trusted relationships with client stakeholders through workshops, interviews, status meetings, and presentations Consistently deliver high-quality work on time and within budget, keeping stakeholders informed of progress and outcomes Foster an innovative, inclusive, team-oriented work environment Advise, challenge, and bring relevant insights to clients on: Third-party risk leading practices, regulatory expectations, and sector-specific considerations Designing third-party risk processes end to end and connecting them with procurement, contracting, cyber, resilience, and compliance How risk platforms like ServiceNow, and other technologies, enable and automate third-party risk processes and fit into a client’s broader ecosystem Using data, AI, and external risk intelligence to shift from point-in-time assessments to continuous, real-time risk sensing Where the market and technology are heading, and what that means for the client’s program and roadmap Delivery and support models, including agile delivery, transition to operations, and ongoing optimization Use AI in your day-to-day work to improve the speed, quality, and insight of what you deliver Lead client demonstrations of solutions that show business outcomes, not just technology features Create clear, compelling client presentations and deliverables Stay current on third-party risk, risk technology, and industry trends affecting our clients Contribute to thought leadership, solution development, and go-to-market activities that drive growth To qualify for the role, you must have: A bachelor’s degree in Information Systems, Computer Science, Business, Finance, Accounting, Engineering, or a related field and 2+ years of relevant experience.
