• Build strong partnerships across Compliance, Technology, Risk, and Business stakeholders to deliver scalable, sustainable solutions.

What We’re Looking For

• Strong understanding of Risk Management frameworks and regulatory expectations.
• Demonstrated experience leading data, analytics, reporting, or technology enablement in a regulated environment.
• Experience managing teams and leading complex, cross‑functional initiatives.
• Proven ability to influence senior stakeholders and communicate complex topics clearly.
