Senior Vendor Security Risk Analyst

About the team Turo is searching for a highly motivated and versatile Senior Vendor Security Risk Analyst under the Enterprise Security team to own Turo's third‑party security risk management (TPRM) program and partners with Security teammates to lead security awareness training and user access review campaigns. You will assess and manage vendor risk end‑to‑end, build scalable review processes, and help strengthen Turo's security culture.

You will operate with significant autonomy across Procurement, Legal, Privacy, IT, and the business. Turo highly values having employees working in‑office to foster a collaborative work environment and company culture. This is central to how we work, and this role will be subject to our current in‑office hybrid schedule that requires Turists to work in the office three days per week on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays.

We expect that employees will meet these required in‑office days consistently as part of their role.

What you will do:

Own the vendor security review lifecycle: intake, risk tiering, due diligence, findings documentation, remediation tracking, and renewals. Evaluate vendor evidence: SOC 2 reports, ISO certificates, pen-test results, and security questionnaires - deliver clear risk recommendations. Review vendor contracts, DPAs, and MSAs from a security standpoint; provide approval recommendations before contracts are signed. Build scalable tiering frameworks, intake workflows, and continuous monitoring capabilities that grow with vendor volume.

Partner with Procurement, Legal, and Privacy to integrate security review into onboarding and renewal cycles without becoming a bottleneck. Complete and maintain external partnership‑facing security questionnaires and trust‑center content in support of integrations. Partner with Security team members to design and deliver security awareness training programs, including role‑specific content on phishing, social engineering, third‑party risk, and data handling. Track training completion and effectiveness;

align program content with TPRM findings and emerging threats. Partner with IT and Security teams to design and run quarterly user access review campaigns, ensuring timely completion, accurate certification decisions, and clear remediation of access exceptions. Report on TPRM, training, and access review metrics to security leadership: cycle time, open findings, remediation aging, and completion rates.

• 5+ years in third‑party risk management, vendor security, or GRC, with direct ownership of vendor security review programs.
• Hands‑on experience evaluating SOC 2 reports, ISO certificates, and penetration test results, and translating findings into business‑ready risk recommendations.
• Familiarity with contract review from a security perspective (e.g., DPAs & MSA) and comfort working with Legal and Procurement.
• Working knowledge of cloud security (AWS), IAM, and data‑protection principles.
• Strong communicator: able to distill complex risk findings for non‑technical stakeholders at all levels.
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Security, Information Assurance or equivalent practical experience.
• Relevant certification: CISA, CISM, CISSP, or equivalent security certification.
• Experience with TPRM or GRC tooling (e.g., Vanta, Drata, ZenGRC) and security‑automation platforms.
• Experience developing or delivering security awareness training, including content creation or phishing simulation.
• Background in a regulated or high‑trust industry - fintech, marketplace, or SaaS handling sensitive data.
