5. Assist with corporate insurance administration, including renewal, claims handling and bordereau reporting.
6. Support coordination of the annual risk appetite review and delivery process.
About you
We’re seeking a candidate with a comprehensive foundation in risk management, ideally complemented by hands-on experience in risk reporting and governance. Success in this role will also require:
7. Exceptional stakeholder engagement and relationship-building skills
8. A proactive mindset focused on process enhancement and effective framework integration
