Sydney, Australia Australian Retirement Trust Full time

**Take hold of a monster opportunity and join our Investments team as a Risk Specialist, Investments. Here's your chance to make an impact at one of Australia's largest superannuation funds.**

**Why join us?**
- You'll get 14% super as standard, to help your future come alive.
- Unleash your potential and build a career to be proud of through excellent training and development opportunities.
- Balance your work between in-person days at our purpose-built hubs and working from home.
- In the office, enjoy end of trip facilities, a yoga and multi-faith room, parent and carer rooms, quiet rooms, BrewHub coffee facilities, and collaborative team spaces.

**About the role**

We’re all about helping our members make the most of their money. And while they go after their goals, you can too. As a L1 Risk Specialist in Investments, you'll report directly to the Divisional Risk Manager and work closely with front-office staff and the L2 Risk team. Your expertise will help shape how we identify, assess, and manage risk across our Investment business area.

Every day brings something different. You'll implement risk frameworks, track key metrics, and work with teams across the business to solve complex problems. You'll keep our risk register current, ensure a sound control environment, manage our policy library, and make sure we're meeting all our regulatory requirements. You'll also spot potential issues early, recommend solutions, and help teams implement them effectively.

This is a **12 month contract position** available in either Sydney or Brisbane, offering an exceptional opportunity to make your mark in investment risk management.

**About you**

You know your way around risk management. You understand financial markets and can explain complex concepts clearly. Most importantly, you're good with people - because managing risk is as much about building relationships as it is about analysing data. It's quite likely you tick some of the following boxes too:

- Direct experience in investment operations or governance.
- Deep knowledge of Australian financial regulations.
- Solid experience in risk management.
- Strong knowledge of financial markets and investment processes.
- Track record of improving risk frameworks and controls.
- Project management skills.
- A knack for turning complex information into actionable insights.
- Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
- Sharp analytical mind with attention to detail.

**About us**

Our 2.3 million members trust us to take care of almost $300 billion in retirement savings. And we help them take charge of their finances and face the future with confidence. Our inclusive culture means you’ll be valued and heard in a respectful workplace. We've created an environment where you can be yourself and do amazing work. It's that simple.

We don’t want to leave you with a monstrous wait. So, you’ll hear from us after the closing date to find out whether you’ve made it through to the next round or not. Being fair and up-front is important to us - and recruitment is no different.
