Risk Management Specialist

Job Description:

The company embeds risk management into business planning, decision-making and everyday management.

To support the corporate Risk Management activities, our client is currently seeking to recruit a Risk Management Specialist who will be part of the Corporate Policy & Risk department

This will include the following tasks:

• Maintain and develop the risk reporting tool ERA (Methodware’s Enterprise Risk Assessor);

• Assess and follow up on agreed actions set out to mitigate specific risks;
• Monitor, update and test the risk policy and procedures;
• Support the assessment, documentation and development of reasonable risk controls;
• Support to various departments within the Company on risk management issues;
• Analyze operational and strategic risks and the associated risk mitigating actions;
• Actively organize and lead resulting key projects (these may well be cross-departmental projects);
• Keep up to date with relevant regulatory issues and developments that could affect the company.

Your profile:

• You have a university degree and a minimum of four years experience in the financial service sector, ideally within a risk management or consultancy environment;
• Ability to identify and analyse operational, financial and strategic risks versus the commercial aspects of the business;
• Proven experience in organizing and leading engagements or projects;
