A successful candidate will play a role in this mission by helping our university research, academic, and administration customers navigate the myriad of university and regulatory requirements that university business processes are subject to, as well as provide university leadership with critical analytical information to inform handling decisions regarding the risks that arise from the use of technology in university business processes. The Senior level analyst will be expected to, in addition to analyst duties, provide leadership on university projects that involve the team and serve in a mentoring role, as directed by the team lead.
The day-to-day work in this position is team-oriented, with individual responsibility for completing risk analysis engagements, but plenty of collegial support to guide as to the university’s risk handling philosophies and processes, and offer advice for situations that do not fit neatly into the “textbook” categories.
