Loblaw's Risk Advisory group is a strategic advisory partner to the business, helping protect, grow, and improve one of Canada's largest and most complex retail enterprises. The team works across the full Loblaw portfolio to advise on high-impact business priorities, strengthen governance, improve operations, and help leaders proactively identify and mitigate risk before issues become reactive.

This internal consulting-style opportunity is for someone who wants to influence how a national-scale business makes decisions, manages operational risk, and improves performance. The work is highly visible, business-critical, and connected to senior leadership and Board-level priorities.

As a Risk Advisory Consultant within Assurance & Advisory, you will support the execution of high-priority advisory and assurance engagements across Loblaw. This role is not traditional financial audit, SOX, IT audit, credit risk, or compliance testing. It is a consultative, stakeholder-facing role focused primarily on operational risk advisory, proactive risk mitigation, process improvement, and business-oriented recommendations.

Working alongside experienced Risk Advisory professionals, you will help understand business challenges, analyze operational processes and information, identify risks and opportunities, and develop practical insights and recommendations. You will also help prepare highly visual materials that simplify complex issues for senior stakeholders.
