About the role:
We are seeking a Strategic Risk Insights & Analysis Business Manager to join the Strategic Risk team. This is a high visibility role that offers direct engagement with executive leadership to influence risk management decisions to manage the most significant strategic risks facing the organization.
This second-line role resides at the intersection of risk management and strategy to provide independent oversight, review, and challenge of strategic risks that may impact the achievement of the company's strategic objectives or core business model. The Business Manager will focus on ensuring that risk from competitive disruption, the changing external landscape, evolving regulations or the company's own strategic choices are appropriately considered in decision-making and risk management routines.
General Responsibilities:
  • Analysis: Assess the impact of short, medium, and longer term changes to the competitive landscape and external environment on the risk of achieving the company's strategic objectives or business model

  • Teamwork: Partner with stakeholders at all levels across the company to manage, inform and influence outcomes
  • Reporting: Create executive-ready materials on strategic risk topics
  • Strategic & analytic orientation: A proven track record of decision making and problem solving based on analytics.
