• Oversee and develop regional Risk and Control Matrices (RACMs) related to key regulations such as DORA, ensuring control coverage meets evolving regulatory standards.
• Develop and maintain regional risk scorecards, thematic issue trackers, and maturity assessments to evaluate the strength of the risk management environment.
• Lead horizon scanning and emerging risk analysis across EMEA, integrating outputs into global risk trend reporting and enterprise-level dashboards.
• Lead workshops with business units to develop risk appetite metrics and establish escalation protocols and mitigation strategies for potential breaches.
• Prepare and present risk reporting materials to EMEA governance forums, senior management committees, and regional Boards.
• Collaborate with other 2LoD teams (e.g., Compliance, Legal, Operational Risk) to support integrated regulatory readiness and cross-functional risk oversight.
• Coordinate closely with ERM teams in New York and Singapore to ensure global consistency in program execution and regional alignment in risk themes and priorities.
• Promote a proactive and embedded risk culture by guiding business leaders on key risk principles, ownership, and control expectations.
  
  

Qualifications and Experience:

• Minimum 8–10 years of experience in enterprise risk management, regulatory risk, or internal risk oversight within financial services or FinTech.
• Deep knowledge of UK and EU regulatory frameworks, including operational resilience and digital risk standards (e.g., DORA).
• Demonstrated ability to conduct independent 2LoD assurance reviews, provide constructive challenge, and effectively escalating risks.
• Strong communication and stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to influence at senior levels.
• Consistently delivers high-quality, timely work with attention to detail and a strong sense of ownership and accountability.
• Demonstrates a high level of craftsmanship and pride in work, ensuring outputs meet rigorous standards of accuracy and completeness.
• Experience using GRC and data visualization tools (e.g., Archer, Tableau) and proficiency in Microsoft Excel, PowerPoint, and Word.
• Relevant risk or governance certifications (FRM, CRISC, Prince2/PMP or equivalent) preferred.
