About the role

The Business Trust Partner (BTP) is a strategic partner to Microsoft Customer and Partner Solutions (MCAPS) business leaders, translating business priorities and risk information into actions and accountable outcomes within the Trust and Integrity Protection (TrIP) framework. The role provides consolidated visibility across risk, audit, monitoring, and remediation, identifies emerging concerns, and enables a culture of compliance-by-design without replacing domain risk owners.

Responsibilities

  • Develop a deep understanding of the assigned business, its strategy, operating rhythms, customers, critical processes, and changing risk profile.
  • Translate TrIP requirements and initiatives into business-relevant priorities, roadmaps, decisions, and actions, and bring business context back to risk-domain teams.
  • Aggregate relevant risk-domain, audit, OneRadar, monitoring, control, and remediation information into clear business-level views.
  • Support periodic trust or compliance assessments that explain overall posture, areas of heightened focus, TrIP activity, accountable owners, and required business actions.
  • Use business champions, stakeholder listening channels, operating forums, organisational updates, and data-informed insights to identify early signals of emerging or systemic risk.
  • Capture, categorise, trend, and route signals to the appropriate risk-domain or leadership owner, and track their disposition and progress.
  • Act as a connector across TrIP and the business when issues span multiple risk domains or lack a clear owner.
  • Facilitate assignment to an accountable lead, establish a visible path to decision or remediation, and reduce contacts and hand-offs.
  • Partner with leaders to define and sustain a compliance support model aligned to the organisation’s structure, maturity, and risk profile.
  • Support annual compliance planning and business risk profiling, champion enablement, TrIP service awareness, leadership tone-from-the-top communications, and integration of accountability into existing business rhythms.
  • Prepare concise, decision-oriented updates on top business signals, organisational changes, key projects, risk outlook, and emerging themes.
  • Tailor communications for business and TrIP leadership so initiatives are timed, explained, and adopted to support business priorities and customer outcomes.
  • Maintain disciplined operating cadences and measurable service outcomes.
  • Track indicators such as proactive signals raised and triaged, emerging risks identified before escalation, ownership and routing timeliness, remediation progress, stakeholder adoption, and reduction in friction or unresolved hand-offs.
  • Use feedback and data to improve the BTP service model.
  • Provide business-derived signals and insights to risk-hunting and resilience teams and connect validated findings back into the business risk portfolio and governance forums.
  • Embody our culture and values.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's Degree in Business, Operations, Finance, or related field AND 4+ years experience in program management, process management, or process improvement OR equivalent experience.
