The Risk team is responsible for facilitating the implementation, delivery and oversight of Hiscox’s Risk Management Framework which includes risk appetites, emerging risks and incident capture and analysis operating to a three lines of defence risk management model. As a second line function, the Risk team balances its role of supporting the business with its responsibility to provide credible, effective challenge.

- Contribute to business second line challenge through involvement in stakeholder meetings and specific risk reviews.
- Stay abreast of regulatory developments in respect of risk management and the commensurate requirements and implications to the business.
- Take a role in the delivery of regulatory requirements including submissions to a range of regulators of the Hiscox group.
- The role has direct exposure to the Group Risk Director and Group Chief Risk Officer on a day-to-day basis.

person specification:

- Proven knowledge or experience of Enterprise Risk Management or a focused risk area. Risk experience through insurance audit, compliance or consultancy roles will be considered.
- Solid understanding of key enterprise risk techniques and related common good practice along with some deep knowledge and experience in key risk types as applicable to insurance / reinsurance
- Experience in meeting corporate and regulatory requirements and related reporting.
- Motivate and collaborate: leverage strong interpersonal skills to interact with, influence and encourage risk owners and business stakeholders to positively respond to questions, inquiries and requests for information; also, be genuinely open to receiving and integrating feedback.
- Qualification or progress towards qualification in related field (e.g. risk management, insurance, finance, accounting).
- Knowledge of Lloyd’s market is advantageous.

**Diversity and Working Patterns**

At Hiscox we care about our people. We hire the best people for the job and we’re committed to diversity and creating a truly inclusive culture, which we believe drives success.

We have also learned that working life doesn’t always have to be in the office, and now it is safe to do so we have introduced hybrid working to encourage a healthy work life balance.

This hybrid working model is set by the team rather than the business to enable you to manage your own personal work-life balance.

We see it as the best of both worlds; structure and sociability on one hand, and independence and flexibility on the other.
