• Manage stakeholder engagement through working groups, communications, and senior leadership updates.
• Monitor regulatory, legal, and privacy developments to ensure ongoing alignment of governance practices with global expectations.
• Support process and control owners in prioritizing and implementing data risk controls and oversight mechanisms.
• Drive initiatives to automate repeatable controls and streamline processes for scale.
• Track performance metrics and report on data risk management OKRs.
• Evaluate opportunities for process improvement and greater operational efficiency.

• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills.
• Background in financial services or a regulated industry with knowledge of financial instruments and trade lifecycle.
• Ability to balance strategic goals with tactical execution in a fast-paced environment.

We'd Love to See:
