  • Review third-party and outsourcing risk assessments and maintain the enterprise risk register.
  • Maintain policies, key risk indicators, risk appetite statements, and other governance reporting.
  • Coordinate with Compliance and Legal on regulatory requirements and financial crime considerations.
  • Coordinate audits and support regulatory reviews and supervisory engagements.

  • Experience contributing to risk-function build-out, including internal controls, risk appetite, and governance frameworks.
  • Working knowledge of financial and non-financial risk domains and recognized risk management methodologies.
  • Strong analytical and written communication skills for senior-management reporting and recommendations.
  • Ability to collaborate across teams and jurisdictions, exercise sound judgment, and escalate material matters.
  • Bachelor's or master's degree in Finance, Economics, Business, Risk Management, or a related field.
  • CFA, FRM, PRM, or CRMA certifications are desirable.
  • Fluent English is required; additional languages are a plus.
  • Ability to work across multiple regulatory regimes and legal eligibility for the relevant jurisdiction.

Benefits

  • Competitive total compensation package.
  • Learning and development programs and education subsidy.
  • Team-building programs, company events, wellness allowances, and meal allowances.
