You'll facilitate regular risk reviews with first-line risk owners, challenge risk assessments, track management actions, and elevate overdue remedial items where appropriate.

In addition, you'll also support the ongoing maintenance and development of the firm's Operational Resilience Framework, including Important Business Services, impact tolerances, dependency mapping, scenario testing, remediation tracking and governance reporting.

And you'll also maintain and coordinate Business Continuity Planning activity.
