  • Oversee risk in change outcomes, simplify the risk and control matrix process, optimise project resources, and ensure critical decisions and sign-off points are managed effectively
  • Report on Risk in Change Governance to the wider Fraud and Scams business unit, and Divisional Governance Forums, providing insights and read-across of LOB initiatives for thematic consistency
  • Oversee the transition from project to business-as-usual, ensuring that risks and controls are properly embedded and handed over to the appropriate business units


Requirements:

To succeed in this role, you'll need prior project/delivery risk management and/or risk in change experience within financial services or consulting/professional services. You should have led prior risk in change projects and ideally have knowledge of risks relating to Financial Crime, Fraud and Scams.
