Role Overview: Looking for greater flexibility to work from home? Or perhaps you’re seeking 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.

As part of the 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, focusing on operational and conduct risks. You’ll help enhance and implement the company’s risk management framework, lead RCSAs, develop risk assessments, and monitor risk appetite with 1st line stakeholders.

You will also prepare and deliver risk and compliance reports to senior management, Board committees, and regulatory bodies as needed.

This role offers scope for personal initiative and encourages ongoing challenge to improve the risk culture within the business.

Ideal candidates will be 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.

Candidates should have experience developing risk assessments and executing RCSAs, possess an analytical mindset, curiosity, and a willingness to learn. Excellent communication skills are essential.
