Global Outsourcing & Third-Party Risk Management Officer (AZP) F/M

What You Do

• Act as the global reference point for outsourcing and third-party risk governance within Allianz Partners, steering and overseeing implementation of the Group Outsourcing Policy (GOP) and Group Outsourcing & Third-Party Management Framework (GOTPM) across all entities.
• Oversee governance across the full third-party lifecycle – from onboarding and due diligence through classification, approval, documentation, monitoring, remediation, and exit – ensuring a consistent, risk-based and proportionate approach.
• Oversee and challenge third-party risk assessments (operational, regulatory, information security, data protection, resilience), ensuring that due diligence and mitigation measures are appropriate to the risk.
• Continuously review and improve outsourcing and TPRM processes, templates, and tools, translating Group and regulatory requirements into clear, practical guidance tailored to Allianz Partners.
• Ensure the quality, completeness, and reliability of outsourcing and third-party inventories and repositories, and drive adoption and enhancement of related tools and data standards.
• Build and lead a global outsourcing and TPRM community, providing expert advice, briefings, and workshops for local functions and key stakeholders, and coordinating core reporting, audit, regulatory and remediation activities.
• Work effectively in an environment shaped by artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, data analytics and cloud-based tools, using insight responsibly and in line with our standards for data governance, security and ethical use.

What You Bring

• 8–10+ years’ hands‑on experience in outsourcing, third‑party risk management or related governance roles in a regulated environment (e.g. financial services, insurance), with a clear track record of operating as a subject‑matter expert.
• Strong experience working with regulatory requirements, audits and supervisory reviews (e.g. preparing evidence, responding to findings, driving remediation), enabling you to anticipate regulatory expectations and avoid material findings.
• Proven ability to influence and coordinate in global, multi‑country environments, including working with senior management and independent control functions; you need to align diverse stakeholders behind common standards and ways of working.
• Deep understanding of outsourcing and third‑party lifecycle governance (classification, risk assessment, due diligence, contracting, monitoring, exit) and the controls that underpin operational resilience and regulatory compliance.
• Demonstrated strength in process optimisation and continuous improvement (e.g. simplifying workflows, standardising templates, improving data quality, driving tool adoption), so that governance is both robust and efficient.
• Advantageous: Master’s degree and/or relevant certifications (such as CTPRP), and experience in insurance or broader financial services operating models, to more quickly navigate Allianz’s context and stakeholder landscape.
