Team

At Raisin Bank, our risk controllers are pivotal in monitoring, identifying, evaluating, reporting and managing potential and current risks through thorough research and assessment.

Tech Stack

Your Responsibilities

At Raisin and RSB, we’re strengthening our second line to manage it with greater structure, clarity, and confidence. As Operational Risk Manager, you will work closely with the wider Risk Controlling team to ensure operational risks are identified, followed up on, and reported with precision and insight.

You won’t just tick boxes. This role is about shaping how we think about operational risk: connecting regulatory expectations with our actual business, improving existing processes, and helping us move from reactive fixes to proactive controls.

• Own the operational risk lifecycle:from risk identification and assessment (RCSA, scenario analysis) through to follow-ups and loss event analysis.
• Bring structure to the chaos: proactively build and enhance operational risk controls, risk indicators, and lessons-learned practices.
• Collaborate cross-functionally:work with Risk Controlling colleagues (ops, credit, ESG) and the first line to embed best-practice risk governance.
• Maintain and improve our frameworks:ensure alignment with Basel III, CRR, MaRisk, and EBA expectations.
• Enhance how we report: draft risk reports for senior stakeholders that are clear, prioritised, and visually effective
• Support smarter tooling: contribute ideas to automate and improve risk tracking (Excel, Jira, and dynamic reporting tools).
• Be part of a lean team: your voice will be heard, and your work will directly impact how we build risk maturity across Raisin and RSB.

Your Profile

• 2–5 years of experience in operational risk, internal audit, risk consulting, or a closely related area in banking or financial services.
• Deep understanding of operational risk and how it differs from other non-financial risks.
• Familiarity with Basel III, CRR, MaRisk, and EBA frameworks. You do not need to be a policy expert, but you should be detail-oriented and know how to check regulatory requirements.
• Strong working knowledge of RCSA, incident management, and risk indicators.
• A structured, independent working style with a proactive mindset and a drive to improve what is already there.
• Good command of Excel and Jira. Bonus if you have worked with risk databases or dynamic reporting tools.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English.
• A desire to understand our business deeply. Even if you do not come from a fintech background, you are motivated to learn quickly and apply that knowledge to better risk outcomes.

Bonus Points

• Familiarity with internal audit or ESG-related risk frameworks.
• Professional certifications (e.g. FRM, PRM) are a plus but not required.
