Insurance

Role Overview:

Looking for greater flexibility to work from home or your first Manager grade role where you can learn from a highly talented CRO? This established, niche insurer offers such an opportunity.

This is a fully remote role, allowing you to work from home every day.

Within 2nd line, you’ll partner with 1st line operations across Claims, Underwriting, and Distribution to support risk identification, assessment, mitigation, and monitoring activities.

You’ll oversee and challenge 1st line risk management processes, controls, and decisions related to operational and conduct risks. You’ll support the enhancement of the company’s risk management framework, lead RCSAs, develop risk assessments, and monitor risk appetite with stakeholders.

You’ll assist in preparing and delivering risk and compliance reports to senior management, Board committees, and regulatory bodies as needed.

This role offers scope for personal initiative and encourages challenging the status quo to develop the risk culture.

Ideal candidates will be experienced Risk professionals from the Financial Services sector, with broad Risk experience across disciplines like Operational and Conduct Risk. Insurance experience is advantageous but not essential.

You should have experience developing risk assessments, executing RCSAs, and possess analytical, curious, and eager-to-learn qualities. Excellent communication skills are required.
