The IT Asset Risk Classification (ITARC) Governance Lead is responsible for the design, governance, and continuous improvement of the enterprise technology asset risk classification methodology. This role partners across Cybersecurity, Operational Resilience, Data Governance, Technology Risk, and business stakeholders to establish risk-based criteria, define scoring models, and ensure consistent assessment of technology assets based on their inherent and residual risk characteristics.

The position leads the development and maintenance of a comprehensive risk scoring framework that incorporates cybersecurity, resilience, data sensitivity, business criticality, and regulatory considerations into a consolidated ITARC score. The individual is responsible for defining risk indicators, establishing weighting methodologies, validating scoring outcomes, and providing governance oversight to ensure the methodology remains accurate, auditable, and aligned with enterprise risk management objectives.
