We are currently recruiting on behalf of an established Commercial Bank/Wealth Manager who are looking to hire a head of operational risk. This is a great opportunity for someone with prior experience as a deputy or team member looking to make a step up, or could also present a great opportunity for someone with prior experience at this level looking to make a switch.

In this role you will be directly responsible for Operational Risk within the London office. You will be required to;

  • Assist the business in driving a strong Risk culture in which the Operational Risk and Assurance framework is embedded in day to day operations.
  • Develop and take ownership of the Operational Risk Framework
  • Build relationships with the business and challenge them where necessary
  • Work with a range of stakeholders throughout the organisation and leverage upon these relationships in order to deliver a highly effective operational risk framework

In order to be successful in your application you must be able to demonstrate experience in performing all of the above duties in addition to a strong understanding of both Wealth Management and Commercial Lending business lines.

In return, you will be provided with a fantastic platform to take ownership of work from day one and to sculpt this into your own image. You’ll also be working alongside a high performing team and be given great exposure to senior management.

If this does sound of interest, please do not hesitate to apply.

    I have recruited into the Corporate Governance space directly since 2005 and have focussed mainly on compliance and risk.  While still active at the senior end of the market, running regional and global head of roles, I am now more focussed on the strategy and day-to-day running operations of the firm.
