Head of Financial Risk

1 week ago

Sydney, New South Wales, Australia AMP Limited Full time
If you live in Australia or New Zealand, you've likely heard of AMP. But at a time when society is changing, we are too. We're now a nimbler business with new leadership and thinking.

For us, these are exciting times. There's a real potential for big thinkers to help us redefine what financial services could be. And turn our legacy into something even more positive and powerful for the future.

Help people create their tomorrow, while you create yours
We help people with their banking, super, retirement and finances. Through upturns, downturns, recessions, and major life transitions.

Every day, we help people see and make more of their financial potential, so that they can create their tomorrow.

And we've been doing it for over 170 years.

If we do our job well, we genuinely add to the prosperity of our country and its people.

How you'll make an impact


Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) is accountable for AMP's ERM framework and underlying policies, risk management capability and the provision of high-quality risk advice, insight, and support to our business partners.

Financial Risk is one of four teams within Bank ERM, along with Credit Risk, Credit Portfolio Analytics and Insights, and Operational Risk and Compliance.


You'll make an impact by:
You will be responsible for leading AMP Limited and AMP Bank's second line of defence oversight over Treasury and Financial risks, including Financial Risk for AMP Limited and AMP Bank, and related obligations through the following core deliverables:

  • Governance
  • Policy
  • Strategy and Planning
  • Risk Culture and Management
  • Communication, Awareness and Training
  • Regulator Relationship Management
  • People Leadership and Development

What you will bring to the team

  • Degree in Economics, Quantitative Finance or similar
  • Treasury Experience
  • 15+ years' relevant professional and/or supervisory experience
  • Demonstrated experience in establishing and maintaining effective stakeholder relationships at a range of levels
  • Ability to constructively challenge, consult and advise, whilst maintaining excellent relationships and the respect of senior executives
  • Strong leadership to create and sustain a culture of accountability, ownership, and delivery
  • Strong analytical skills and the ability to think laterally and strategically.
  • Experience in leading and developing people to deliver on operational goals, and a record of accomplishment in maintaining a high performing team
  • Outcomes focussed
  • Seek engagement and information where it is needed (proactive, not reactive)
  • Experienced understanding of own Sub-Division/Division; and broad understanding of the overall Group and its competitive environment.
  • Sets and achieves operational targets, objectives or service standards with a short to medium term focus, that directly impact the results of a department.
  • Applies emerging technical capability within own operational area/department
  • Analyse both routine and varied issues of differing complexity and modifies working methods/processes in own job, sometimes without the benefit of defined procedures.

You'll thrive here if
If you can adapt from BAU to the ambiguous with ease, you'll do well here. Change is never easy, so bring your commitment, grit and growth mindset.

Because we run lean, you'll be expected to jump in and deliver across a variety of areas. Meaning, you'll be closer to the action and executive decisions that influence where we go next.

If you're someone that can hold their own, you'll find AMP quite liberating.

Why we think you'll love working at AMP
Doing what we've always done is not an option, so your clever ideas will get airtime here. You'll be encouraged to speak up and try new things. If they don't work, we move on - better for it.

We know there's no one way of doing things. So, you won't have to sacrifice who you are or how you work to fit in here. We're inclusive and flexible in many of the ways you'd expect. And in some of the ways you wouldn't. As long as your health and wellbeing come first - at home and at work.

In fact, most of what makes AMP such a welcoming, enjoyable place to work are our people. Wherever you go, you'll find moments to connect, feel valued and do meaningful work.

Whether it's through our first-class leaders who are invested in you and your success. Through year-round opportunities to volunteer, fundraise and give back to the community. Or in the everyday challenges you face as we work together to strengthen this great organisation. Challenges that will stretch you, amplify your potential and compound the impact you have.

We believe in the power of inclusion and diversity
We're dedicated to fostering inclusion, diversity, and a warm feeling of belonging at AMP. It sparks creativity, ignites innovation, and turns up the dial on the quality of our decisions and performance. This not only makes our workplace more engaged, but also
