You will lead the implementation of risk management processes in alignment with the Group Risk Management Framework (GRMF). This includes managing Risk and Control Self‑Assessments (RCSAs), conducting control assurance reviews, and analysing risks, issues, and policy non‑compliances to ensure accurate risk profiling.

You will also maintain a central repository of technology risks and controls, delivering reports to support informed decision‑making. In this role, you will collaborate with stakeholders to ensure effective operation of technology controls, identify areas for improvement, and ensure compliance with internal policies, industry standards, and regulatory requirements.

You will conduct periodic reviews to assess control maturity and support continuous improvement. Additionally, you will support business continuity, disaster recovery, and audit activities, guiding stakeholders in providing appropriate evidence.

You will lead relevant forums and produce regular reports and dashboards for Senior Management.

Strong report writing, communication, and stakeholder engagement skills are essential. You should have a foundational understanding of technology risk management and controls, making familiarity with IT frameworks like ISO 27001, PCI DSS, or NIST important. Experience in conducting risk assessments, audits, compliance activities, and producing MI reports is beneficial.
