ADEGBOLA OYEKUNLE

I’m a Senior Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) Analyst with 7+ years of progressive experience architecting enterprise-wide governance, risk, and compliance programs across financial services and public infrastructure. I translate complex regulatory mandates—SOX, GDPR, FFIEC, NIST, and ISO 27001—into operational frameworks that measurably reduce risk exposure.

At MARTA, I spearheaded the enterprise-wide Third-Party Risk Assessment (TPRA) program, overseeing vendor onboarding due diligence, annual reassessments, and remediation tracking for 80+ active vendor contracts. I engineered the organization’s first Vendor Risk Scoring Matrix, driving a 34% reduction in critical vendor risk exposure within 18 months and serving as a principal reviewer for SOC 2 Type II, penetration test results, and ISO 27001 documentation.

I led ITGC audit preparation across 14 control domains, coordinating evidence collection that delivered zero repeat findings across two consecutive annual audit cycles. I also manage ServiceNow GRC for risk register maintenance and issue tracking, and I deliver quarterly executive dashboards to the CIO and Board.

Previously at USAA, I owned end-to-end SOX compliance for IT General Controls, managing testing of 45+ controls and directing quarterly access recertification across 12 banking applications—remediating 300+ excessive privilege instances and reducing segregation-of-duties violations by 42%. I’ve also supported GDPR gap assessments and OCC regulatory examinations to achieve zero Matters Requiring Attention (MRAs), and I bring a trusted cross-functional approach that bridges technical teams and executive leadership.
