• In this role, you’ll assess and communicate risk using frameworks such as NIST and HTRA methodologies
• You’ll document, track, and report cyber risks using ServiceNow GRC, including risk registers, treatment plans, exceptions, and remediation activities
• You’ll support governance forums, audit activities, and stakeholder discussions by clearly communicating cyber risk posture and recommendations
• You’ll help maintain reporting quality, consistency, and alignment with enterprise standards while supporting team members as needed

Skills and Qualifications

• Recent experience using ServiceNow GRC for cyber risk documentation, reporting, issue management, and risk register maintenance
