Your work will support a recently relaunched Risk & Control Self-Assessment (RCSA) program, the implementation of a new control validation framework, and ongoing business continuity efforts. In this highly visible role, you'll help drive meaningful improvements across multiple enterprise risk programs while building strong partnerships across the organization. Your contributions will help ensure BECU remains prepared for growth, change, and continued member service excellence.

To join our dynamic team, we require candidates to be residents of WA, OR, ID, AZ, TX, GA, SC, NC, CA or VA.

  • Control Validation & Testing: Perform internal control validation activities, including sample selection, documentation review, evidence gathering, and testing to evaluate the design and operating effectiveness of key controls.
  • Findings Management Oversight: Review control deficiencies and management action plans, provide constructive challenge where needed, monitor remediation efforts, and help ensure risks are addressed in a timely manner.
  • Business Continuity Support: Assist with business continuity planning, testing, and program administration activities in partnership with disaster recovery and business resiliency teams to help ensure organizational preparedness.
  • Risk Reporting & Analytics: Generate ad hoc and recurring reports, perform analysis that enhances risk transparency, support leadership reporting needs, and help improve visibility into key enterprise risks and trends.
  • Operational Risk Program Support: Assist with loss event data collection activities and support additional operational risk management initiatives as the program continues to mature and evolve.
  • Stakeholder Partnership & Risk Awareness: Build strong relationships across the organization to promote risk awareness, support business partners, encourage continuous improvement, and drive consistency in risk management practices.
  • Risk Technology Administration: Support the administration of risk management tools and applications, including helping business partners navigate Archer-based processes related to RCSAs, findings management, and other operational risk activities.
  • Special Projects & Program Enhancements: Contribute to enterprise risk initiatives, program enhancements, merger-related activities, and other projects that strengthen BECU's overall risk management framework.


This isn't just about ticking off tasks on a list. It's about making a significant, positive change in BECU's journey, where your contributions are valued, and your growth is continually fostered.

WHAT YOU'LL GAIN:
  • The opportunity to play a meaningful role in the evolution of BECU's Operational Risk Management program during a period of significant growth and transformation.
  • Hands-on experience supporting a recently relaunched enterprise-wide RCSA program and the implementation of a new control validation framework.
  • Exposure to multiple risk disciplines, including operational risk, internal controls, findings management, business continuity, and loss event management.
