- Participating in reviews of products and processes which might give rise to reputational or Strategic Risk
- Monitoring industry developments and analyzing their potential impact on the company
- Leading and participating in conversations with senior leaders on strategy
- Defining and maintaining metrics (along with RAG ranges) related to reputational and Strategic Risk, and preparing quarterly reports in both areas
- Developing a stakeholder scorecard to gauge the bank’s standing with shareholders, clients, partners, regulators, and communities
The successful candidate will benefit from having:
- Strong experience in the financial services industry with an understanding of reputation risk and how it can impact financial institutions
