Third party risk manager

IPC International, the procurement and supply chain partner supporting Subway Franchisees, is excited to offer an opportunity for a Third‑Party Risk Manager on a 6 month fixed term contract to join our Enterprise Risk team.

As our Third‑Party Risk Manager, you will play a key role in protecting IPC International by overseeing the financial stability, due diligence and ongoing risk management of our suppliers. You’ll partner closely with teams across the business to assess vendor risk, ensure compliance, and strengthen our organisation’s third‑party risk practices.

• Key Responsibilities you will be accountable for:
• Leading the development, implementation and adoption of our Third‑Party Risk Management (TPRM) framework.
• Conducting due diligence and risk assessments for new and existing vendors, ensuring ongoing monitoring and compliance.
• Ensuring we meet all regulatory, contractual and client obligations throughout the vendor lifecycle.
• Providing expert guidance to stakeholders as they manage their vendor relationships and associated risks.
• Delivering training, education and communications to enhance business‑wide understanding of TPRM.
• Supporting sourcing initiatives and helping to optimise our vendor portfolio.
• Preparing high‑quality reports for governance, risk forums and senior stakeholders.

Our culture and values shape how we work and who we hire. Everything we do is built on three core values:

• We are empowered – we have the freedom to make a difference, together.
• We collaborate – we trust each other, contribute and succeed as one team.
• We deliver on our commitments – individually and collectively, today and tomorrow.

We ask all colleagues to bring authenticity, openness and curiosity into how we work:

• Be courageous and open in sharing your perspectives.
• Value diverse viewpoints and remain curious.
• Communicate clearly and honestly.
• Bring your true self—your opinions, thoughts, and ideas matter.
• Speak up when something isn’t right.
• Support each other with empathy.
• Build inclusion and avoid subgroups.
• Look after yourself and those around you.

We understand joining a new organisation can be daunting, so we offer a thoroughly supportive environment with:

• A structured onboarding programme.
• Time with senior leaders, colleagues and our Culture Champions.
• Training and development programmes focused on feedback, ways of working and personal growth.
• Flexible working hours between 8:00am and 6:30pm, helping balance life in and out of work.
• A comprehensive benefits package including enhanced pension, healthcare, 25 days’ holiday, salary‑sacrifice schemes—and breakfast and lunch items provided in the office.
• Opportunities to volunteer with our nominated charities, plus one dedicated volunteer day per year.
• Recognition schemes and our annual Summer and Winter events.

We are committed to diversity, equity and inclusion, ensuring every colleague is valued, respected and supported to reach their potential.
