Supply Chain Risk Specialist

Responsibilities As a risk specialist, you’re driven to understand how uncertainty shapes outcomes—diving into root‑cause drivers, assessing exposures, and developing recommendations that strengthen program performance. We need a specialist like you to help our business teams enhance decision‑making by applying structured risk analysis, maturing risk governance, and elevating the effectiveness of our GSC Risk Gate process. On our team supporting enterprise risk management and acquisition programs, you’ll evaluate supplier and product risks in leading supplier risk management platforms to identify emerging risks, quantify potential impacts, and develop mitigation strategies. You’ll help shape data‑driven risk postures using methods such as probabilistic analysis, scenario modeling, dependency mapping, and structured risk gate assessments to deliver actionable insights. You won’t go at it alone—you’ll collaborate with cross‑functional teams consisting of technical experts, program managers, security specialists, and mission stakeholders to interpret risk indicators and support decision forums. Once documented, you’ll help develop cohesive materials to communicate risk findings, support stakeholder coordination, and contribute to program reviews that inform management decisions and support continuous improvement of the Risk Gate process. In this role, you’ll use your analytical expertise and understanding of risk principles to apply modeling and measurement techniques that evaluate system vulnerability, program readiness, and enterprise exposure.
