Role description
The success of third party relationships is critical to our clients. Our Extended Enterprise professionals help our clients maximise the benefits gained and minimise the risks from their supply chain and extended ecosystem. General: Extended Enterprise
In Extended Enterprise we perform a huge variety of projects helping our clients with their third party relationships. Our advisory services typically involve developing and implementing TPRM frameworks, policies, procedures and governance models for our clients that align with industry best practices and regulatory requirements. This may involve conduct gap assessments of our client’s TPRM programme and providing guidance and support to improve their third party due diligence, contracting, oversight, monitoring and termination to build sustainability, integrity and resilience in to their supply chain operations. We help clients across a wide range of regulatory, reputational, operational and ethical risks.
Responsibilities
When you join EERM, you will see how we work with some of the largest organisations in the world, across a variety of industries. Our client list includes major organisations in financial services, technology, mining, media, pharmaceuticals, oil and gas, public sector and consumer goods including retail, automotive, hospitality and services sectors.
The work you perform enable you to lead exciting client engagements including supporting clients to manage the risk associated with third party relationships, such as following factors:
- The wide range of different third party risks an organisation may face across different industries, including relating to anti-bribery, sanctions, human rights, ethics and sustainability in the supply chain, business resilience, cyber risk and data privacy;
- The third party risk regulations which our clients and their third parties need to comply with;
- The drivers which affect behaviours of business partners, suppliers and customers;
- The operational processes and controls required by an organisation to effectively monitor its third party relationships; and
- In addition, you will build an understanding of how to manage risk, engagement economics and teams of several people in order to deliver an optimal outcome for our clients.
A typical EE advisory engagement will involve:
Advisory engagements usually involve working as part of a small team (typically 2-5 people) to embed yourselves for a fixed period of time alongside a team of client stakeholders and work collaboratively to deliver positive, high value programmes of change / improvement for our clients. They require a high degree of stakeholder management and change management activity as well as strong governance and project management. The key phases of an advisory engagement usually include benchmarking existing capability, designing, and developing an enhanced capability, building or implementing that enhanced capability and supporting the client to adopt and embed the new way of working. Advisory engagements can range in duration from 6-8 weeks for the smaller programmes through to 6-12months for the larger programmes.
In addition, we often subsequently support our clients with implementation and operation of their TPRM programmes. Our ‘operate’ capability includes a range of innovative solutions that we offer to our clients to help them deliver their TPRM programmes, including supply chain risk intelligence, integrity due diligence, outsourced risk assessment managed services and third party risk monitoring programmes. Each of these programmes are different in nature and require team members to think flexibly and independently, with a high focus on problem solving for our clients to help manage their most complex supply chain risk challenges.
