  • support the team’s technical work including stress testing, scenario analysis, and operational risk quantification;
  • work with teams across the business to provide informed and robust review and challenge of their Risk and Control Self-Assessments (‘RCSA’);
  • carry out root cause analysis / lessons learned reviews of operational risk events and oversee 1 st line remediation activity;
  • provide 2 nd line oversight of third-party relationships and business projects;
  • supporting the continued development and enhancement of Rothesay’s operational resilience, business continuity, and crisis management frameworks;
  • deliver general and targeted training to the business to enhance the understanding and ownership of operational risk within the 1 st line;
  • direct the analysis of risk data and information and produce risk reports for Rothesay’s risk committees; and

  • practical experience of applying best practice operational risk management tools and techniques;
  • excellent oral and written communication skills, e.g. engaging workshop facilitation, high quality report writing, etc.;
  • ability to build strong relationships with peers across the 3 lines of defence;
  • pragmatic, commercial approach to operational risk management to enable continuous improvement of the control environment and risk aware culture without overly constraining the business; and
  • a desire to support the ongoing improvement of the Operational Risk Management framework and deliver increased value to the business.

Desirable

  • knowledge of operational risk modelling and statistical analysis;
