Manager, Enterprise and ESG Risk

ING Australia's risk division is looking to hire a Manager – Enterprise & ESG Risk on a 12-month fixed term maternity cover contract.

The role sits within the line 2 Enterprise Risk Management team, where you will support the development and maintenance of the Risk Management Framework, Risk Appetite Statement as well as the implementation of the Climate & ESG Risk Frameworks across the organisation.

You don't need to have enterprise risk or climate risk experience. We are looking for risk professionals that combine experience in multiple risk classes, for instance operational risk combined with either credit risk or market risk with a line 2 risk management skillset. We can train you on the rest.

This is a high profile, shop window role where you will get exposure to emerging risk classes and have the opportunity to impress key stakeholders across the business.
