Join a role that's central to our technological resilience, offering a unique opportunity to shape the firm's tech risk strategy and enhance industry compliance.
As a Tech Risk & Controls Director in Cybersecurity and Technology Controls, you will play a pivotal role in shaping and implementing the firm's technology risk management strategy. Leveraging your advanced knowledge and expertise in technology-risk disciplines, you will identify, oversee, and mitigate compliance and operational risks in line with the firm's standards. You will collaborate with various stakeholders, including Product Owners, Business Control Managers, and regulators, to develop and maintain a comprehensive view of the technology risk posture and its impact on the business. Your ability to make calculated decisions, manage large teams, and drive strategic projects will be crucial in ensuring the firm's adherence to regulatory obligations and industry best practices.

The Tech Risk and Controls Director will be a part of the Control and Operational Risk Evaluation (CORE) team within GRC.

Job responsibilities
Working within the CORE team, in partnership with stakeholders from across Global Technology, you will lead the ongoing program to accurately represent and maintain the firm's complex technology operations within the Corporate Operational Risk Environment (CORE) system. This includes:
Consulting with technology owners in Product, Engineering and Operations to appropriately model their processes, sub-processes, risks and controls for assessment.
Ensuring technology risk and controls reference data (e.g., risk scenarios, policies, standards, procedures, etc.) is available and aligned for use in CORE, such that assessments are consistent and can be justifiably informed by the performance data gathered from the technology estate (i.e., metrics & measures).
Consulting with business-aligned information risk managers to ensure technology assessments are aligned and inform business operational risk assessments in a meaningful, actionable manner.
Collaborating closely with Operational Risk Management and Business Controls Management to ensure that technology risk and control taxonomies are optimised, with supporting systems able to interoperate.
