We're working with a growing financial services business looking for an Operational Risk Manager to join its risk function during a period of development and transformation.
This role sits across the business, providing second-line oversight and working closely with stakeholders to improve risk management, challenge existing approaches and drive better outcomes.
This isn't a purely process-driven risk role. They're looking for someone who can think independently, connect the dots and come up with practical solutions, rather than simply follow a framework or escalate every problem.
What you'll be doing:
- Working with business stakeholders to identify, assess and manage operational risks
- Challenging RCSAs, control effectiveness and existing risk management practices
- Overseeing incidents, root-cause analysis and remediation activities
- Providing risk input into business change and strategic initiatives
- Analysing risk trends and helping improve risk reporting and governance
- Contributing to the development of the wider risk management framework
What they're looking for:
- Experience in Operational Risk,
Risk & Controls, Business Controls or a similar financial services role
- Strong understanding of RCSAs, controls, incident management and remediation
- Someone who can challenge stakeholders, think critically and influence decisions
- A proactive approach to problem-solving, with examples of personally driving improvements
- Comfortable working through ambiguity and taking ownership without needing constant direction
Nice to have:
- Experience in banking, non-bank lending, insurance or another regulated financial services environment
- Exposure to risk framework uplift, enterprise risk profiles or risk-in-change
- Experience contributing to strategic initiatives or improving how risk is managed
If you're an operational risk professional who enjoys solving problems, challenging the status quo and having a genuine impact beyond the day-to-day process, this is a outstanding opportunity to help shape the future of a growing risk function.
The client are looking to interview as early as 26th October so please apply now for immediate consideration.
