  • Do you want to make a tangible impact by using your expertise in risk management?  
  • Do you value meaningful relationships and want to build trusted, supportive connections with stakeholders at all levels in a collaborative environment? 
  • Do you want to work for a company that both appreciates you and aligns with your principles? 

Join our Risk & Compliance Team to provide expert risk advice and second-line oversight for our charity and its subsidiaries. Make a real impact by helping us manage our key risks effectively, drive our mission forward, and enhance our risk culture.  

Your role 

As our Risk Framework Manager, you'll play a key role in embedding our risk management framework. You'll regularly monitor and review our risk appetite statements and metrics, whilst creating valuable and insightful reports for our governance committees. Plus, you'll offer expert advice to stakeholders, suggest risk mitigation strategies, and lead regular Risk & Control Self-Assessment activities across the charity. 

You will build trusted relationships with stakeholders at all levels, providing guidance on risk management standards and methods. Focusing on second-line oversight of risk exposures, you'll coordinate responses to risk events, conduct root-cause analyses, and support the charity take necessary actions to prevent them from happening again. Your responsibilities will include delivering effective risk training, sharing knowledge to enhance understanding of risk throughout the charity, and supporting the implementation of our core policy framework. You'll play a key role in ensuring a secure and resilient future for our charity, always working with diligence and a commitment to excellence. 

About you 

  • Are you an experienced risk management professional with a solid background in governance, risk, or compliance? We’re looking for someone with deep knowledge and hands-on experience of risk management frameworks to join our team. Your strong communication skills—both written and verbal—will be crucial as you handle the unique operational risk challenges in a charity setting. 
  • You should be comfortable using Microsoft Office and have a proven track record of collaborating effectively with both internal teams and external partners. Experience in risk and compliance within a regulated financial services environment is key. 
  • If you have a knack for analysing data, drawing insightful conclusions, and explaining complex ideas clearly, you’ll stand out. We need a team player who can also work independently, build productive relationships across all levels, and handle multiple priorities with great attention to detail. If you’re ready to help us ensure a secure and resilient future for our charity, we’d love to hear from you!
