About this role

Get to Know the Trust Services Team In addition to GRC services, we also have a Trust Services team. We move at a fast, focused, and reliable pace – completing deliverables within 1 to 3 business days for customers with 5 clients and customers with 5,000 clients. We work directly with our customers’ security and sales points of contact, meaning clarity, teamwork, and problem-solving are at the forefront of everything we do to help our customers drive sales and renewals by using security and compliance as differentiators.

If you want to be part of a team that builds the bridge between sales and security, you’re in the right place. The Opportunity Workstreet is seeking a Senior Manager, Trust Services to lead our global Trust Services organization and the delivery of YAQ (Your Automated Questionnaires), our AI-powered, human-in-the-loop security questionnaire service. The ideal candidate builds structure in ambiguous, fast-moving environments, adapts quickly when client workflows change overnight, and holds a high bar for accuracy and client experience.

This role requires availability primarily during US Eastern Time hours. This role sits at the intersection of people leadership, client delivery, operations, and product. You’ll set and enforce the standards your team works by: how tickets are triaged and prioritized, how AI-generated answers are validated before they reach a customer, how work is QA’d and escalated, and how new clients and new hires get up to speed. You’ll serve as the senior point of contact for strategic accounts and the escalation point when deals are on the line.

You’ll also be a trusted advisor who helps clients mature their trust programs, not just answer their questionnaires. What You'll Do Lead and develop a global team: Manage a distributed organization of managers, engineers, and analysts across multiple time zones, including hiring, coaching, performance management, and building a bench of leaders who can run accounts independently. Own strategic client relationships: Serve as the senior point of contact and escalation path for high-complexity accounts.

Set realistic turnaround expectations, coordinate with client security, legal, sales, and engineering stakeholders, and turn high-pressure situations into stronger relationships. Advise clients on their trust programs: Help clients strengthen their knowledge bases, trust centers, and due diligence workflows so their security posture becomes a sales accelerator. Run client onboarding end to end: Standardize how new clients are launched, from kickoff and knowledge base setup to SLA alignment, intake workflows, and clear ownership between Trust Services, GRC, and the client’s own teams.
