Senior Manager, Business Operational Governance & Performance

• Advise the business on risk. Be the trusted subject-matter expert: identify risks early, advise on risk-in-change as products and processes develop, and help teams treat risk as an enabler, not a blocker.
• Own incidents and breaches end-to-end. Run incident management so issues are recorded, investigated and resolved in line with policy and obligations, drive root-cause analysis and remediation, and support breach management with Compliance and Legal.
• Lead controls assurance. Test how effective key controls are, enable first-line testing, run independent second-line reviews, and report findings, escalating material weaknesses where they matter.

• Work AI-first. AI runs through the whole risk lifecycle here, and we expect you to push it further. Use agentic AI to identify, assess and monitor risk and controls and to generate real-time, decision-quality insight. You validate and assure every output for accuracy, completeness, bias and confidentiality before anyone relies on it; you advise on the thresholds, escalation triggers and human-in-the-loop checkpoints that the business sets and owns, and monitor whether they’re met; and you understand the tooling well enough to know its failure modes and limits. AI does the heavy lifting. You stay accountable for the judgement.
