Oversee standardized approaches for SOC 2 reviews, control analysis, and risk evaluation.

Ensure effective coordination with Procurement and business stakeholders.

Experience with or exposure to continuous monitoring capabilities (e.g., external risk signals, ongoing vendor posture tracking) to enhance third-party risk visibility is a plus.

Process Optimization & Automation (20%)

Identify and prioritize opportunities to scale Governance and Risk processes using automation and AI Agents.

Ensure successful implementation of tooling and workflow improvements (e.g., OneTrust, KnowBe4).

Strong planning, prioritization, and execution skills, capable of managing multiple concurrent audit timelines, remediation efforts, and control dependencies in fast-paced, evolving environments.

Ability to communicate the value of governance and risk work in clear business terms, helping stakeholders understand how strong risk practices reduce organizational exposure, support resilience, protect trust, and advance College Board’s mission.

A strategic and inclusive leadership style: you set clear priorities, build effective team structures, plan for future needs, and foster a culture of belonging.
