Working closely with first-line business, operations and technology teams, you will help strengthen risk governance, operational resilience and control effectiveness across the organisation.

Key Responsibilities

• Provide second-line oversight, advice and challenge across operational risk, compliance and resilience activities.
• Support the development and enhancement of enterprise risk management frameworks, policies and governance arrangements.
• Partner with business and technology stakeholders to improve risk identification, assessment and treatment processes.
• Provide oversight of business, cyber, data and information risk management practices from an enterprise risk perspective.

About You

We are interested in speaking with risk professionals who bring a balanced background across operational risk, compliance and governance, together with exposure to data, information and cyber risk management.

You may currently be working in operational risk, enterprise risk, compliance, operational resilience, internal audit or risk advisory within financial services, funds management, banking, insurance or another highly regulated environment.

To be successful, you will likely demonstrate:

• Experience operating within a second-line risk or compliance function.
• Strong operational risk and control framework expertise.
• Knowledge of prudential, regulatory or governance frameworks relevant to regulated organisations.
• Exposure to technology, cyber, data or information risk management, ideally from a governance and oversight perspective rather than a purely technical role.
• Experience supporting operational resilience, business continuity or incident management programs.
• Exceptional stakeholder engagement and influencing skills.
• The ability to communicate complex risk matters clearly and pragmatically to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Experience preparing executive-level and board reporting.

Why Consider This Opportunity?

This is an opportunity to join a growing organisation at an important stage of its evolution.

The role offers genuine breadth across enterprise risk, compliance, operational resilience, technology and cyber governance, making it well suited to individuals seeking a diverse and commercially relevant risk leadership position.
