Program Manager, Specialized Risk Assessment

Meta's Integrity Risk team is the central engine driving risk management and compliance in Trust & Safety at the company, supporting Meta and the family of apps. We enable the business to achieve its goals at scale and pace, safeguard it against real-world integrity risks, and address the regulatory scrutiny the business faces. Our goal is to make Meta the premier place to work for governance, risk, compliance, and integrity professionals.
The Specialized Integrity Risk Assessments (Specialized Integrity Risk Assessments) team within Integrity Risk produces the formal regulatory risk assessments that satisfy Meta's obligations under the EU Digital Services Act, UK Online Safety Act, Australian Online Safety Act, EU AI Act, and emerging regulatory requirements. Our assessments are submitted to regulators, examined by external auditors, and directly shape Meta's product safety posture. We are seeking a senior integrity risk professional who can independently own end-to-end delivery of complex regulatory risk assessments, contribute to the evolution of our methodology and operating model, and serve as a trusted subject matter expert across Legal, Policy, Engineering, Product, and Trust & Safety teams. In this role, you will also help design and leverage AI-assisted tooling to increase assessment quality and capacity while maintaining the core analytical rigor our work demands.
A strong candidate for this role is an experienced Trust & Safety or GRC professional who operates effectively in evolving regulatory environments with shifting priorities, can pivot quickly when priorities shift, and translates work across compliance and integrity teams seamlessly. You will act as the connection point between Risk, Legal, Regulatory Offices, and the business, maintaining deep integrity subject matter expertise.
