At Swinburne University of Technology, we are inspired by our vision of people and technology working together for a better world. We have an exciting ongoing full-time opportunity for a Director of Risk and Audit to lead enterprise risk management, business continuity management systems and internal audit functions across the University. 

About the Role 
The Director of Risk and Audit will lead and develop a risk team and risk champions, and partner with senior stakeholders to deliver a mature enterprise risk and compliance culture. In this strategic role, you will deliver a contemporary enterprise risk management framework, working across the University to review and update risk treatments and consider emerging risks and opportunities. As you drive continuous improvement, you will be accountable for alignment between the University’s strategy, risk appetite statement and material risks including ongoing monitoring and reporting.

Key responsibilities include implementing and enhancing the Enterprise Risk Management framework, fostering a risk-aware culture within the University, overseeing the internal audit function, and participating in critical incident management. 

A senior risk leader, you will be degree qualified in business, finance or related discipline and will have experience in driving risk culture and designing, implementing, and embedding enterprise risk management practices and programs in risk management and assurance within a large complex organisation. With exceptional interpersonal and stakeholder management skills, you will be an influential communicator with confidence to present to key senior stakeholders, Executive Committees and Council. 

This is an opportunity for an agile and contemporary risk professional to strongly contribute to delivery of the University’s Horizon 2025 strategy. Hybrid working arrangement available.
