Senior Cyber Security Third Party Risk Manager

Eneco is one of Europe's leading sustainable energy companies, working toward climate neutrality by 2035 through our One Planet strategy. Our Digital & Tech and Security organisation is a critical enabler of that mission - and the TPRM programme you lead sits at the heart of how we manage risk across our supplier ecosystem.

• Own the TPRM framework end-to-end - policies, standards, procedures, risk registers, and playbooks
• Lead governance forums and steer risk-based decision-making and risk acceptance processes
• Define and track KPIs, KRIs, and executive dashboards that give management real visibility of supplier risk
• Drive continuous improvement across the full third-party lifecycle - from onboarding through to offboarding

• Perform and oversee security assessments of new and existing suppliers - reviewing ISO 27001, SOC reports, pen test results, BCDR plans, and security controls
• Evaluate supplier cyber maturity, provide risk ratings, and define remediation requirements
• Maintain risk registers, manage exceptions, and oversee remediation tracking
• Implement continuous monitoring for critical suppliers and manage periodic reassessments
• Support supplier breach response activities alongside the incident management team

• Embed mandatory security review gates into procurement - high-risk vendors do not get onboarded without assessment and approval
• Support contract reviews and security clause integration alongside Legal and Procurement
• Align TPRM practices with NIS2, DORA, ISO 27001, NIST, and GDPR requirements
• Prepare evidence and reporting for internal and external audits and regulatory examinations

• Own and optimise the TPRM/GRC platform - driving automation of vendor onboarding, risk tiering, workflows, and reporting
• Identify opportunities to reduce manual effort and increase assessment coverage through tooling
• Define reporting capabilities that translate supplier risk data into actionable management insight

Eneco operates critical energy infrastructure and depends on a broad ecosystem of technology suppliers and service partners. As that ecosystem grows in complexity, so does the risk it carries - and regulators are paying close attention. NIS2 and DORA are not future considerations here. They are operational realities.

As TPRM Lead you own the end-to-end Third Party Risk Management programme - from framework and governance through to supplier assessments, continuous monitoring, and procurement integration. This is not an assessment execution role. You are here to mature the programme, increase its organisational reach, and make third-party cyber risk visible and manageable at every level of the business.

You will work from within the CISO Office, partnering with Procurement, Legal, Compliance, Risk, Data Privacy, and IT. You will need to influence without formal authority - and you will have the mandate to do it.

You are a senior TPRM professional who has built or significantly matured a third-party risk programme in a complex enterprise environment. You know how to assess a supplier, but more importantly you know how to design a programme that scales, earns organisational trust, and keeps pace with a shifting regulatory landscape. You are comfortable in a room with senior stakeholders, confident presenting risk data to the board, and able to push back constructively when a high-risk vendor is being fast-tracked without proper scrutiny.
