Job Description

The IT Strategic Risk function supports ISG leadership by providing clear insights into risks, priorities, and progress. This role identifies potential issues early—whether related to execution, architecture, systems, or people—and collaborates with teams to address them proactively. It monitors key risks and delivery challenges, enabling leaders to respond swiftly. The role also involves turning incidents into lessons and offering timely insights to governance forums, ensuring IT efforts remain aligned, focused, and on track.

Key Responsibilities

Strategic Governance Framework

• Revisit, redesign, implement, and monitor the IT Strategic Governance Model to ensure alignment across IT transformation and modernization roadmaps, commercial priorities, and enterprise requirements.
• Drive integration of performance, capability, and people dimensions into the governance framework to identify early-stage risks related to execution, architecture, competencies, and vendor or third-party gaps.

Strategic Risk Identification & Intervention

• Monitor critical ISG transformation areas, highlighting systemic threats, program delivery bottlenecks, and people risks.
• Translate these into business-impacting risk statements and initiate risk mitigation action plans in coordination with Process & Service Owners.
• Partner with Risk Owners to track risk velocity, exposure, and escalation thresholds.
• Mobilize and guide executive focus and support when mitigation efforts stall or are inadequate, ensuring risks are neutralized.

Future-proofing

• Champion continuous improvement by embedding risk-related learnings and best practices into the governance framework.
• Co-design recovery plans with Process and Service Owners to restore service improvement trajectories.
