You will serve as the main Risk Oversight point of contact for relevant external engagement, including industry forums, trade body activity, regulatory discussions, vendor sessions and peer engagement. You will coordinate ICB Risk participation, represent the firm where appropriate, and bring external themes and insights back to the organization in a structured, actionable way.

Working closely with Credit Risk, Fraud, Collections, Forecasting, Regulatory Affairs, Government Relations, Complaints, Legal, Compliance and firmwide Risk partners, you will connect external developments with internal portfolio performance and oversight priorities. You will also provide oversight and challenge of lending mandates, manual underwriting, customer outcomes, product and strategy changes, and relevant commercial and strategic initiatives.
