Department Overview 

The First Line Risk & Control (FLR&C) function sits within the COO Domain and enables effective risk ownership in the First Line. The function supports business and operational units in managing operational and non-financial risks consistently, while keeping risk ownership with the business and independent framework ownership and oversight with the Second Line. FLR&C focuses on coordination, governance, advisory support, control library discipline, issue and remediation oversight, management information, trend analysis, committee reporting and timely escalation of material control weaknesses.

• Translate complex data into plain-language insights, explaining what is changing, why it matters, where action is required and what decisions are needed;
• Identify opportunities for automation, standardised templates and improved tooling across risk and control reporting processes;
• Ensure reports distinguish clearly between operational execution issues, control effectiveness issues, Second Line methodology/oversight matters and legal entity decision points.

Your profile:  

• Experience in risk reporting, controls reporting, data analytics, governance MI, operational risk, audit analytics or management reporting within financial services or another regulated organisation;
• Experience building dashboards, committee packs, trend analysis and action-oriented management reporting;
