This includes reviewing information about the department s systems, including internal platforms, tools, and processing environments, as well as processes and documentation against regulatory requirements, identifying gaps, and coordinating the implementation of necessary controls and reporting mechanisms to maintain continuous compliance and operational resilience.

The Senior Risk Analyst will also collaborate with our partners in control management and internal audit to monitor and manage progress for all management action plans within Data, provide reporting, and assist in identifying, owning, and managing risks supporting the Data Organization.
