Third Party Cyber Oversight Specialist
Interim Third Party Cyber Oversight Specialist
(Contract /UK wide/ Hybrid-working)
Joining us in Cyber Advisory team
Our Cyber Advisory team is growing its agile talent pool to support a strengthening pipeline of client work spanning cyber maturity assessments, governance and controls, third-party risk and emerging technology advisory. We're looking for experienced interim professionals to join our Agile Talent Community and deliver Grant Thornton-led advisory engagements for clients across financial services and beyond. You'll lead or support third-party and supply chain cyber risk programmes for our clients — running due diligence, ongoing monitoring and remediation tracking across a vendor estate. You'll be comfortable designing or uplifting a TPRM framework, not just executing an existing one, and equally at home engaging procurement and legal stakeholders as well as technical vendor contacts.
If you’re an experienced Third-cyber risk specialist who’s tired of choosing between freedom and meaningful work, there’s another route. Within our Cyber Advisory team, you’ll be given the opportunity to take on short- to medium-term projects that sharpen your expertise, stretch your thinking, and give you a different angle on familiar challenges - all without locking you into a single path.
Skills we are looking for
- Experience running third-party / supply chain cyber risk programmes, including due diligence, monitoring and remediation tracking
- Experience in designing or uplifting a TPRM framework, not just operating one
- Working knowledge of relevant standards and regulation (e.g. DORA third-party requirements, NIST/ISO 27036, SIG/VSA questionnaires)
- Confident engaging both procurement/legal stakeholders and technical vendor contacts
- CISSP, CISM or equivalent preferred; TPRM-specific certification a plus, not essential
Why Consultants choose the ATC
- Work that moves you forward
- When a project fits your skills, we’ll get in touch, but you choose whether it’s right for you. That means working on engagements that genuinely build your portfolio and expand your expertise.
- The freedom of contracting without the hidden admin
- You’re not left to navigate the freelance world alone. Our Agile Talent team helps you understand freelance regulation and connects you with people who broaden your thinking through our teams and clients.
- Community you can actually feel
- Connection shouldn’t disappear just because you’re contracting. From market insights to wellbeing sessions to networking events, you’ll be part of a community designed to make the independent path less isolated and more impactful.
