As the Director of Card Risk Assessments, you will spearhead a high-impact assessment team for our Card business, architecting and driving assessments of our products, processes, and business units while serving as a primary catalyst for the Enterprise Risk Identification process. In this role, you will help lead the evolution of our risk assessment program by leveraging Artificial Intelligence (AI) and data-driven technologies to transition from traditional, point-in-time reviews to an always-on, insight-driven practice that seamlessly connects with other enterprise risk programs.
The ideal candidate is a strategic thinker who knows how to execute and get things done, is willing to challenge the status quo when processes no longer make sense, and solves complex problems creatively and collaboratively. A successful candidate will bring strong analytical and process improvement skills, a track record of driving change, and a strong passion for people leadership and talent development. You will have high visibility across lines of business and work with senior leadership and key stakeholders across the first and second lines of defense to build and implement innovative risk solutions.

• Connect assessment insights across broader risk programs, facilitating cross-functional alignment and a holistic, integrated understanding of enterprise risk exposure.
• Drive the end-to-end strategy and transformation of assessment programs as a business owner, partnering cross-functionally to pioneer AI/ML capabilities that turn risk data into continuous, actionable insights.
• Champion continuous innovation by questioning legacy methodologies, breaking down operational bottlenecks, and taking bold ownership to architect practical, high-impact, data-driven solutions.
• Serve as a trusted advisor and interdepartmental liaison across lines of business and risk communities, providing consult, thought leadership, and knowledge sharing to ensure consistent implementation of risk management practices.
• Analyze complex risk data and information to proactively identify emerging risks, trends, and process improvement opportunities.
• Collaborate effectively across multiple stakeholder groups and second-line partner organizations, such as Operational Risk Management, Compliance, Legal, Technology, and Internal Audit.
• Support interactions with Internal Audit and regulatory bodies regarding risk assessment coverage, methodologies, and outcomes. Prepare strategic presentations and reporting materials for senior management and risk governance forums.
