Role purpose

Support the build of a clear and practical end-to-end TPRM operating model. You’ll help document how TPRM work is done, who does what, and how teams across the bank interact across the third‑party lifecycle. This is a hands-on role focused on analysis, documentation, coordination and producing simple, high-quality outputs.

What you’ll do (key responsibilities)

Operating model support

• Document the “as-is” and “to-be” TPRM operating model (people, process, governance, data/MI and tools) in alignment with the OpModel Director.
  
• Capture roles and responsibilities across teams (e.g., 1st and 2nd line of defence) and turn these into simple artefacts (RACI, interaction maps).
  
• Support the definition of key hand-offs between TPRM, Procurement, Business Risk and Resilience (BRR), Regions, Global Businesses and Global Functions (GBGFs), and other stakeholders.
  

Process and controls documentation

• Help map key TPRM activities across the third-party lifecycle (e.g., onboarding, due diligence, ongoing monitoring, issues).
  
• Assist with documenting minimum requirements, controls, and where local variations may be needed.
  
• Identify practical opportunities to simplify and standardise (raise suggestions; the lead will decide).
  

Governance and mobilisation support

• Help organise working sessions and capture outcomes, actions and decisions.
  
• Maintain logs (actions, risks, issues, dependencies) and support creation of simple plans and timelines.
  
• Support preparation of materials for governance forums (slides, brief updates, decision notes).
  

Stakeholder collaboration

• Work with global, regional and functional stakeholders to gather inputs and confirm understanding.
  
• Build strong working relationships and escalate blockers early.
  

Key deliverables you’ll help produce

• Draft operating model documentation (sections, diagrams, summaries)
  
• RACI / responsibility and interaction models
  
• Process maps and simple control summaries
  
• Workshop notes, action tracking, RAID logs
  
• Draft materials for governance updates (packs, briefings)
  

Experience (typical)

• 3+ years’ experience in risk, controls, procurement, operations, change delivery, or third‑party management (financial services helpful but not essential).
  
• Experience producing structured documentation (process maps, PowerPoint packs, trackers, meeting outputs).
  
• Exposure to operating model or process improvement work is a plus.
  

Skills and behaviours

• Clear written communication and presentation style (can turn unclean inputs into clean outputs).
  
• Comfortable working with multiple stakeholders and following up actions.
  
• Organised and detail-oriented; able to manage deadlines.
  
• Curious mindset—asks good questions and flags gaps early.
  
• Team-first approach, inclusive and collaborative.
  

Tools (helpful)

• PowerPoint and Excel (essential)
