Newbury, United Kingdom Newbury Building Society Full time

**Location**: Head Office, Newbury (hybrid working available, minimum of 2 days per week office based)

**Hours**: Monday to Friday, 09:00-17:00

**Salary**:£40,000 - £45,000

We are recruiting for an Operational Risk Officer, who can really impact the future direction and capabilities of the business. This role is a key support to the Chief Risk Officer, ensuring the Society operates an effective approach to risk management by:

- Ensuring a strong second line of defence; providing appropriate oversight, support, challenge and assurance of the first line
- Evolving, maintaining and operating a robust Risk Management Framework (RMF) and associated processes
- Ensuring the operational and conduct activities are compliant with good practice and regulatory expectations
- Provide good governance through Assurance reviews
- Ensuring oversight of Operational Resilience is undertaken, supporting the business to effectively manage operational risks, in particular risks relating to third parties, data loss, cyber security and recovery and resolution planning

You will be working collaboratively alongside the Risk Officer (Financial Risk) and Compliance team to provide a responsive and proportionate approach to managing risk, identifying opportunities for improvements and greater efficiencies whilst remaining within risk appetite. You will be able to demonstrate logic and judgment alongside an ability to influence and negotiate at all levels.

You might be looking for the next step in your career from a more junior 2nd line role within financial services, or you might be an operational leader with significant exposure to 1st and 2nd line risk as part of your role.

**ESSENTIAL CRITERIA FOR THE ROLE**:

- Operational Risk Management experience within financial services (ideally in a second link risk function, but strong first line risk experience can be considered)
- Knowledge of the key legal and regulatory framework relating to risk in the financial services sector
- Knowledge of Operational Risk and Resilience Framewords, Recovery and Resolution planning, involvement in Third Party Risk Management oversight
- Risk Management qualification would be advatageous, but not essential
- The salary offered is dependent on evidence of key competencies and skills you currently possess. Newbury Building Society pride themselves on recruiting for potential so if you do not meet all the criteria in terms of knowledge, experience and skills, you will benefit from learning and development opportunities to enable you to work towards the top of the salary range. This will be via ongoing feedback from your line manager and assessment of your progression against all of the criteria.
