  • Improvements and management of initiatives: Identify and address process weaknesses, obtain stakeholder buy-in and engagement, develop business cases, plan and deliver projects, and escalate risks and issues.
  • Control focus: Proactively identify, assess, and document risks, propose process and control improvements, and keep the Operational Risk department informed.
