Our client, a dynamic and rapidly growing UK-based EMI FinTech Payments firm, is seeking an experienced Enterprise Risk Analyst to support their Head of Risk. This is a focused Enterprise Risk Analyst role dedicated entirely to the Second Line of Defence (2LOD), centred on embedding the firm’s Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) model.

• Risk Assessment Cycle: Facilitate and manage the formal Risk and Control Self-Assessment (RCSA) process across all business units.
• Control Framework: Maintain and evolve the company’s Risk Control Framework, ensuring controls are effective and aligned with the established risk appetite.
• Residual Risk Analysis: Calculate, analyze, and report on residual risk levels, providing clear data and insights to the Head of Risk for strategic decision-making.
• Reporting & Governance: Support the Head of Risk in preparing comprehensive reports for executive management and the Board, demonstrating the company’s current risk profile.

Requirements for the successful Enterprise Risk Analyst to include:

• 1-3 years of professional experience in a risk management, compliance, or assurance role, ideally within a FinTech, challenger bank, or wider financial services firm.
• A strong foundational understanding of the Three Lines of Defence model and the specific role of the 2LOD.
• Direct, hands-on experience working with risk registers and contributing to formal risk assessment cycles.
• Exceptional organizational skills and acute attention to detail—this is a pivotal governance role.
• A proactive attitude and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-growth, technology-driven environment.
