**Job Description** Our client’s success is our success. And you make it happen**

Payment systems are complex, regulated and everchanging. We are an established market leading brand who are focused on driving client growth. We’re at the forefront of innovation punching above our weight. We’re enabling the future for our clients through innovative technology like the New Payments Platform (NPP) and open banking.

We are a listed public company (ASX:CCL) and one of five licensed banks in Australia with full direct connectivity and production capability across all domestic payment systems. Whilst the major banks leverage this capability for their consumer and business clients, our B2B model focuses on enabling other banks, fintech’s and corporates to deliver innovative and competitive payment and digital solutions to their clients and customers.

- This would involve looking at the end-to-end risk value chain and transform how we manage risks across 3LoD from a people, process and technology perspective

**3) Business Risk Advisory**
- Review and challenge risk/RiC assessments, adequacy and effectiveness of risk mitigation strategies, controls, and action plans implemented by 1st line teams.
- Critically assess incidents, breaches, and near misses to identify systemic issues and recommend appropriate remediation actions.
- Ensure the continuous improvement of risk management practices by engaging with business units to provide constructive feedback and challenge assumptions.
- Act as a trusted advisor to senior leadership and business units on operational risk matters, including emerging risks, regulatory changes, and industry trends.
- Drive education and training programs to elevate operational risk awareness and capabilities across the organisation.
- Collaborate with product, client, and technology teams to ensure operational risk considerations are integrated into new initiatives, system changes, and major projects.

**4) Oversight and Monitoring**
- Oversee the implementation of key risk indicators (KRIs), risk control metrics, and performance dashboards to monitor our operational risk exposure on an ongoing basis.
- Prepare data driven risk reports for executive committees, providing clear and actionable insights into key operational risks, trends, and emerging issues.
- Oversee incident and issue management and remediation, including timely escalation, root cause analysis, and lessons learned.

**5) Risk Governance**
- Oversee, monitor and maintain standards/processes to ensure risk system integrity
- Develop Operational risk reporting to relevant committee forums, ensuring risk information is data driven, comprehensive, accurate, and insightful.
- Work closely with internal audit and compliance functions to ensure a coordinated approach to risk management and control assurance.

- 5+ years of experience in Operational Risk management within the finance and banking industry
