  • Bonus: Professional certifications like FRM, CRO, CERA, or similar

Why You’ll Want This Role:

  • Work with a forward-thinking team that values rigour, transparency, and real-world impact
  • Influence business-critical decisions through data, insight, and innovation
  • Operate at the intersection of risk, strategy, and performance
  • Lead transformation in how risk is measured, understood, and leveraged
