  • Governance reporting - Lead the development and delivery of clear, consistent reporting for governance committees, executive leadership, and Board-level audiences. Brief executive stakeholders on risk findings and recommendations, anchoring them to the broader enterprise risk framework, and synthesize information across risk types into enterprise-level insight that informs decision-making.
  • Risk assessment & monitoring - Facilitate senior-level risk workshops and run the annual risk assessment cycle, including identifying and evaluating significant risks, control deficiencies, and remediation plans tied to business objectives.
  • Cross-functional partnership & risk culture - Drive alignment and adoption of the enterprise risk framework by partnering across business units, second-line functions (Legal, Finance, Cybersecurity, HR, Third-Party Risk), and Internal Audit, promoting cohesive practices across the three lines of defense.
