Description du poste

Are you a seasoned risk and compliance professional looking for a role that offers something a little different?

Perhaps you’re ready to step away from being one of many risk specialists in a large financial institution and move into a role where you can have greater breadth, more autonomy, stronger visibility and the opportunity to genuinely influence change.

At SkyCity, we’re looking for an experienced risk and compliance professional whose real superpower is their ability to build trusted relationships and influence stakeholders at every level of the business. You’ll know how to partner with the business to build risk capability, strengthen risk culture and drive genuine first-line ownership and accountability, while maintaining the independence and constructive challenge expected from a key member of our Line 2 Risk and Compliance team. This balance of partnership and challenge is central to the role.

You’ll thrive in an environment where you can set the standard, hold people to account and provide pragmatic, commercially informed guidance, rather than simply pointing out what isn’t working. You’ll be confident engaging with senior leaders, comfortable challenging when needed and equally capable of bringing people with you.

SkyCity is on an exciting journey to continue strengthening how we manage risk and compliance across the organisation, and this role provides a genuine opportunity to help shape that journey.

You’ll also bring:

• Demonstrated experience leading and delivering compliance or risk programmes end-to-end by partnering effectively with a broad range of business stakeholders. This will include implementation and embedment of policies, incident and issue management processes, and controls.
• Strong knowledge of New Zealand and/or Australian regulatory frameworks.
• Strong critical thinking and the confidence to provide constructive challenge in the moment, including at senior leadership level.
• Excellent written, verbal and presentation skills, with experience developing and delivering training and awareness programmes.
• A curious mindset and willingness to take ownership of new or unfamiliar workstreams.
• High levels of integrity, independence, discretion and sound professional judgement.
• Experience across financial crime, technology, cyber, data, conduct risk, investigations or whistleblowing frameworks would be highly valued.

At SkyCity, you’ll be part of a collaborative and forward-thinking environment where your expertise will directly influence how we manage risk and uphold our values.

We offer:

• A genuine opportunity to shape risk culture and strategy at scale
• Exposure to senior leadership and governance forums
• A supportive team environment focused on growth, integrity and excellence
• Competitive salary and benefits
• A supportive, diverse company culture
• Medical insurance
• $2.50 cooked meals in our staff cafeteria (there's some healthy salads as well)
• Staff convenience store (discounted eggs, butter, bread, milk etc)
• Heavily discounted staff car parking
• Discounts at our outlets
• Free trips for you plus one as many times as you like up the Sky Tower (if you like heights and not too busy!)

We are passionate about maintaining a strong sense of team, therefore we require someone with drive, enthusiasm and a good sense of humour.

At SkyCity, our career opportunities are as diverse as our workforce. We don't just embrace differences; we value and support them. Our hiring is centred on capability and performance, regardless of gender, gender identity, race, origin, age, educational background, disability, or religious beliefs. We're here to empower you to shine. Our willingness to adapt ensures you can chart your path with us! Join us at SkyCity and be extraordinary by being you.

SkyCity takes its commitment to Host Responsibility seriously. Every member of our team, no matter their role, contributes towards SkyCity's culture of customer care.
