About Our Client
Our client is a leading international organization operating in a complex and evolving regulatory environment. As part of its continued growth and transformation, the company is investing in strengthening its risk and governance capabilities through the creation of key strategic roles.
Job Description
As Senior Risk & Compliance Manager, you will play a central role in the development and deployment of an international Enterprise Risk Management framework. Your responsibilities will include:
- Designing and implementing governance structures, methodologies and processes related to compliance and regulatory risk management.
- Building and embedding new governance structures, risk processes and ways of working in a function that is currently being established.
- Building and coordinating a global network of risk stakeholders across functions, regions and business units.
- Facilitating risk identification, assessment and mitigation activities across a broad range of risk areas.
- Supporting the consolidation of risk information into a coherent enterprise-wide view.
- Driving stakeholder engagement and promoting a strong risk-aware culture throughout the organization.
- Collaborating closely with Legal, Finance, Sustainability, Procurement, Security, Technology and Commercial teams.
- Monitoring evolving regulatory requirements and supporting the implementation of appropriate risk responses.
- Defining and tracking key risk indicators and monitoring mitigation plans.
- Contributing to the preparation of management reporting and risk insights.
- Supporting governance, certification and sustainability-related initiatives requiring risk, compliance or financial expertise.
- Partnering with international colleagues to ensure consistency, alignment and best-practice sharing across the organization.
This is a highly visible, non-managerial role with significant exposure to senior stakeholders and broad cross-functional interaction.
The Successful Applicant
The successful candidate will bring approximately 8 to 12 years of professional experience gained within risk management, compliance, governance or related advisory environments. You will demonstrate:
- A strong track record in Enterprise Risk Management (ERM), including hands-on experience designing or implementing risk frameworks.
- At least five years of direct exposure to risk management methodologies, governance processes and risk assessments.
- Experience building, implementing or transforming risk management frameworks and governance models.
- Experience within large international and matrix organizations.
- A university degree in Law, Business Administration, Finance or a related discipline.
- Strong understanding of compliance, regulatory and governance-related topics.
- Excellent stakeholder management and influencing skills.
- Ability to navigate complex organizations and work effectively across multiple functions.
- Ability to combine strategic thinking with operational execution.
- Comfortable working both at framework-design level and in the detailed execution of risk management activities.
- A pragmatic and hands-on approach combined with strategic thinking.
- Demonstrates a collaborative, pragmatic and humble mindset.
- Comfortable influencing senior stakeholders without relying on hierarchy or formal authority.
- Outstanding communication skills and fluency in English.
- High levels of integrity, curiosity, adaptability and learning agility.
Applications are welcome from a variety of sectors including consumer goods, luxury, technology, pharmaceuticals, industrial organizations and consulting firms with strong risk advisory practices. Candidates whose experience is primarily focused on banking compliance, internal audit or internal controls without significant risk management exposure are unlikely to be a strong fit.
What's on Offer
- Opportunity to join a prestigious international organization during an important phase of transformation and growth.
- Unique chance to build and shape a newly created Enterprise Risk Management capability from the ground up.
- High level of visibility across senior leadership and key stakeholders.
