Responsibilities
- Receive, assess, process, and triage Gov360 requests, confirming completeness, clarifying business needs, identifying dependencies, and routing each request to the appropriate governance pathway or subject-matter expert.
- Perform initial risk-based assessments using established criteria; identify requests that may require enhanced review, escalation, additional controls, or cross-functional input.
- Manage assigned requests through completion by coordinating stakeholder input, tracking decisions and action items, maintaining status, and following up on open items to support timely resolution.
- Partner with Legal, Privacy, Information Security, Quality, Compliance, Data, AI, and R&D business representatives, as applicable, to define and maintain high-risk use cases, decision criteria, required evidence, and escalation triggers.
- Maintain accurate, complete, and audit-ready records in Gov360, including request documentation, assessments, decisions, conditions, approvals, supporting evidence, and closure information.
- Analyze recurring questions, case trends, bottlenecks, and user feedback; recommend and implement practical process improvements that reduce burden, eliminate unnecessary steps, improve consistency, and strengthen the user experience.
- Create, revise, and maintain Gov360 procedures, work instructions, job aids, templates, FAQs, decision trees, and other guidance so they remain clear, current, and aligned with approved governance requirements.
- Develop and deliver role-based Gov360 training, onboarding, office hours, and targeted communications for requestors, reviewers, and governance partners; assess training needs and incorporate lessons learned.
- Prepare and monitor operational metrics, dashboards, and reports covering request volume, status, cycle time, aging, outcomes, escalations, and recurring risk themes; highlight issues requiring management attention.
- Support governance program initiatives, system or workflow enhancements, user acceptance testing, inspection or audit readiness, and other continuous-improvement activities as assigned.
