See yourself in the team

As an Operational Risk Manager, you will support the Senior Manager and Executive Manager to embed and monitor adherence with the Operational Risk Management Frameworks (ORMF).

Your main focus will be to support operational risk activities across GSU, working with Line 1 and other Line 2 risk teams to ensure there is adequate implementation, management and oversight over the Group’s Frameworks.

Your day could look like but not limited to

  • Providing a ‘bigger picture’ as to how risk activities support the business in achieving its strategy;
  • Applying industry and business knowledge to proactively identify and pursue meaningful risk activity;

  • Reporting on risk exposures in preparation for Non-Financial Risk Committees or other risk reporting as needed;
  • Building strong working relationships with Group Support Units, Line 1 risk and business stakeholders.
