Security Compliance Manager

Successful business relationships are built on trust and shared values – this is an opportunity to join the team that programmatically helps Microsoft suppliers understand our values and data protection expectations. We hold suppliers to a set of privacy and security standards that consider cybersecurity risk, regulatory obligations, and personal data rights so that our customers can use our products and services with confidence.

The Microsoft Supplier Security and Privacy Assurance (SSPA) program is a corporate control that sets privacy and security requirements for our global suppliers and drives compliance to these baseline standards. This is an opportunity to bring your security thought leadership to interactions with suppliers and security colleagues so that you can integrate improved mitigating security controls to reduce risk to the company.

The Security Compliance Manager will build requirements and also help supplier meet these standards by supporting security compliance escalations. This role is for a skilled communicator, able to hold discussions with security supplier leaders while taking a security position with confidence, explaining it in clear terms, and having difficult conversations with ease!  This role will encounter an interesting and diverse breadth of supplier use case scenarios and will inevitably be at the forefront of security implications of how suppliers use AI Technologies.

This is a security compliance role, integral to an assurance program - this is not an investigations role, our focus is to prevent the worst outcomes to the extent possible. 

Microsoft’s mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. As employees, we come together with a growth mindset, innovate to empower others, and collaborate to realize our shared goals. Each day we build on our values of respect, integrity, and accountability to create a culture of inclusion where everyone can thrive at work and beyond.
