You’ll partner across the organization to connect strategic, operational, and emerging risks, strengthen resilience, and help Green Path balance risk, opportunity, innovation, and mission impact.

If you enjoy working across functions, facilitating thoughtful conversations, analyzing complex information, and turning risk insights into practical recommendations, this could be a great opportunity.

• Prepare clear and meaningful risk reporting for executive leadership and Board committees.
• Provide visibility into significant risks, emerging threats, interconnected exposures, and areas of concentrated risk.

Provide risk advisory and decision support

• Serve as a trusted thought partner to leaders, project sponsors, and cross-functional teams.
• Help teams evaluate uncertainty, opportunities, assumptions, dependencies, tradeoffs, and potential impacts.
• Facilitate risk-informed discussions during strategic planning, major projects, operational decisions, and organizational change.
• Translate complex risk information into clear options, recommendations, and actionable next steps.

Build risk capability and culture

• Promote consistent enterprise risk practices across Green Path and its affiliates.
• Encourage a culture where teams proactively identify and discuss risk while remaining focused on opportunity and innovation.
