Looking for greater flexibility to work from home?

Or perhaps you’re looking for your first Manager grade role where you can learn from a highly talented CRO?

This established, niche insurer offers 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 decision-making, especially regarding operational and conduct risk. You’ll support the enhancement of the risk management framework, lead RCSAs, develop risk assessments, and monitor risk appetite with 1st line stakeholders.

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

There’s scope to make this role your own, encouraging continual challenge to improve the risk culture.

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

You should have experience developing risk assessments, executing RCSAs, and possess an analytical, curious mindset, eager to learn. Excellent communication skills are essential.
