* Analyse and challenge key risk mitigation strategies, supporting the business in achieving its growth objectives
* Produce clear and impactful risk reporting for committees and senior management
* Drive continuous improvement in risk identification, monitoring, and reporting practices
* Lead root cause analysis for risk events and control weaknesses
* Help deliver initiatives linked to emerging regulations (e.g., operational resilience, third-party risk, technology risk, and financial crime)
Ideal Candidate Profile:
* Strong experience in enterprise risk management within financial services, preferably insurance
* Proven ability to implement and enhance risk frameworks across large or growing businesses
* Comfortable challenging stakeholders constructively and offering independent, professional opinions
* Analytical thinker with excellent communication and relationship-building skills
