Manchester, United Kingdom NatWest Full time

Are you a seasoned risk management professional looking to drive technology and digital risk initiatives forward? We have an exciting opportunity for a Technology Risk and Control Specialist to join our team at NatWest Group.

About the Role

We're seeking an experienced individual with a strong background in technology risk management to lead the assessment, review, and implementation of controls related to operational and financial risks associated with technology and digital solutions. You'll be responsible for ensuring that our technology and digital risk profile is accurately reflected in our corporate governance and risk committees, and will play a key role in shaping our overall risk strategy.

In this challenging and rewarding role, you'll have the opportunity to work closely with our second-line Risk team, Control Testing team, and Franchise & Function Control teams to develop and implement effective risk management frameworks. You'll also be responsible for producing corporate governance and risk committee packs, formulating and articulating technology-related risk appetite, and managing stakeholder relationships with technology and digital specialists.

What You'll Do
  • Evaluate, manage, and mitigate the impacts of strategic technology and digitisation initiatives on our operational risk and control profile
  • Support specialist technology stakeholders, including second and third lines of defence, in identifying and mitigating technology-related risks
  • Develop and implement effective risk management frameworks to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements and industry standards
  • Produce high-quality reports and recommendations for corporate governance and risk committees, highlighting areas of risk and opportunities for improvement
The Skills You'll Need

To succeed in this role, you'll need a deep understanding of technology and digital risk management principles, as well as experience working with industry frameworks such as COBIT and CRISC. You'll also need excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to build strong relationships with stakeholders across the business.

As a highly skilled risk management professional, you'll have a proven track record of delivering high-quality outcomes in fast-paced environments, with a strong focus on process improvement and efficiency. You'll also have experience in conducting risk assessments, developing risk mitigation strategies, and implementing control frameworks.

Key responsibilities will include:

  • Managing conduct risk associated with relevant franchise products
  • Producing corporate governance and risk committee packs, formulating and articulating technology-related risk profiles using an operational risk framework and material risk measures
  • Providing a joined-up or aggregated view of the control environment for relevant technology and digital business areas
  • Communicating complex ideas and solutions to support risk management

We estimate that the salary for this position will be around £80,000-£100,000 per annum, depending on your level of experience and qualifications. If you're a motivated and results-driven risk management professional looking for a new challenge, we'd love to hear from you
