The Senior Director, Strategic Risk Enablement & Integration is responsible for building, operating, and continuously improving the enterprise risk operating backbone within Strategic Risk Management (SRM).

This role enables consistent, high-quality risk execution across business units and risk domains by coordinating Enterprise Risk Committee (ERC) activities, integrating cross-functional risk efforts, and providing shared risk services, tools, guidance, and learning. The position ensures that enterprise risk processes are coherent, scalable, and decision-useful, while preserving clear ownership of risk execution within the business and risk domains.

The role acts as the primary facilitator and integrator of SRM’s operating model—connecting people, processes, and infrastructure so risks are identified, assessed, escalated, and addressed efficiently.

• Coordinate ERC operations, cadence, agendas, and materials to ensure focused, risk-based discussions and clear decision outcomes.
• Integrate inputs from business units, risk domains, and oversight functions into a cohesive enterprise risk narrative.
• Track follow-ups, decisions, and escalations to ensure accountability and closure.

• Serve as the central integrator across business units and risk domains to ensure consistent application of SRM processes.
• Enable alignment across strategic, operational, and emerging risk discussions.
• Reduce fragmentation by harmonizing risk practices, inputs, and outputs across functions.

• Promote consistent understanding of SRM principles, processes, and escalation expectations.
• Enable capability uplift across the organization through targeted training and practical resources.

• Develop and maintain SRM playbooks, guidance documents, and job aids to support consistent execution.
• Translate enterprise risk expectations into clear, usable tools for business and risk domain partners.
• Continuously refine materials based on feedback and evolving risk needs.

• Define and maintain clear enterprise escalation pathways for risks and issues.
