• Conduct in-depth reviews to identify risks and complete control mapping across our most material processes, and help design scalable controls and a control monitoring & testing program.

• Lead the development and implementation of risk appetite statements, risk tolerance thresholds, and key risk indicators, and work with data analysts and Product managers to create monitoring dashboards.

• Support first line teams in documenting, solutioning, and prioritising control gaps.

• Ongoing oversight of issue remediation activities, including regulatory remediation, using our risk management tool (Audit Board) to ensure appropriate risk focused prioritisation, and help validate closure of remediated issues, including advising on the risk acceptance of issues where appropriate.

• Analysing incidents and producing actionable insights.

• Partnering with 'first line' teams across the business to support the launch of new products by ensuring that key risks are identified and mitigated with the right balance of pre-launch and post-launch checks with a focus on ensuring we can continue to ship quality products at pace.

• Coordinate the quarterly residual risk assessment process across the risk taxonomy, including loss and incident reporting, to inform our regional risk profile for reporting to local and global risk committees, and to our local boards.

• Promoting and helping embed a proactive risk culture, making risk meaningful and relevant to everyone at Wise.

• You have experience managing, coaching and mentoring a team.

• Working knowledge of the OCC regulatory regime relating to enterprise and operational risk management. Regulatory remediation experience is a definite plus.

• Understanding the mechanics of Federal Reserve Bank payment rails and scheme rules is a definite plus.

• You have experience in enterprise risk and operational risk management, risk and control self assessments, and risk reporting.

• You have the ability to go deep and understand complex operational processes, identify risks and controls.

• You have experience designing and implementing control monitoring, risk appetite statements, and KRIs. 

• You are comfortable with AI, data analysis and data-driven problem solving and solutionising. SQL, Looker and Superset experience is a definite plus.

• Payment products, ACH payment rails and payment operations are a bonus.

• You have experience in new product risk assessments, operational risk event analysis and finding new and innovative ways to do things.

• You have strong problem-solving, decision-making, and analytical skills to navigate complex situations and make data-driven decisions.

• You have excellent verbal and written communications skills, and are proficient at drafting concise executive style narratives for risk committees and board reporting.
