Information Security Third Party Assurance Analyst
We are seeking an Information Security Third Party Assurance Analyst to support the assessment and ongoing oversight of the organisation’s suppliers, partners and other external service providers. In this role, you will help ensure that third parties meet required information security, privacy, resilience and risk management standards before and throughout the relationship lifecycle. You will work closely with procurement, legal, technology, privacy, risk and business teams to provide clear, practical assurance and support informed risk-based decisions.
Your responsibilities will include reviewing supplier security questionnaires, independent assurance reports, policies, certifications and other evidence; assessing controls against recognised frameworks and internal requirements; identifying gaps, risks and areas requiring remediation; and documenting findings in a consistent and auditable manner. You will maintain accurate records of assessments, track remediation plans and follow up on outstanding actions. The role will also involve contributing to onboarding and periodic reviews, supporting risk acceptance processes, preparing management reporting and escalating material concerns where appropriate. You may assist with improving third-party risk procedures, assessment templates, guidance materials and reporting dashboards.
We are looking for experience in information security, supplier assurance, technology risk, audit, compliance or a closely related field. You should have a sound understanding of security controls and common frameworks such as ISO 27001, SOC 2, NIST or CIS, together with familiarity with data protection, business continuity, access management, vulnerability management and incident response. Strong analytical and organisational skills are essential, as is the ability to interpret technical evidence and communicate its implications clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. Experience using governance, risk and compliance tools or managing multiple assessments simultaneously would be advantageous. Relevant professional qualifications or certifications are welcomed, although practical experience and a proactive, collaborative approach are equally valued.
