StashAway is seeking a Risk Manager to support the Group Chief Compliance & Risk Officer in strengthening and scaling the company's Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) framework across multiple jurisdictions and business lines. This hands-on role sits within the Group Risk & Compliance function and focuses on business and operational risk management, excluding dedicated technology and cyber risk ownership.
Key responsibilities include developing and implementing the Group ERM framework across StashAway entities; managing enterprise risk processes such as Risk & Control Assessments (RCA), incident management, Key Risk Indicators (KRIs), and thematic reviews; maintaining oversight of operational risks across business, operational, and product functions; and partnering with business stakeholders to strengthen controls and drive risk mitigation. The role also involves preparing risk dashboards and management reporting for senior leadership and Board discussions, and driving risk awareness through engagement and training initiatives.
A significant component involves leading the evolution of the Group's risk infrastructure and repositories, including risk registers and third-party risk management inventories. The ideal candidate will build and maintain scalable operational workflows using automation, AI-enabled tooling, and no-code/low-code platforms (such as Grist and workflow automation tools). This includes designing practical workflows that reduce manual effort, supporting development of intelligent dashboards and automated reporting, and exploring emerging AI and agentic tooling to improve operational efficiency.
The role requires close collaboration with Country Management, Product, Operations, Compliance, Finance, Data, and Technology teams. The candidate should combine strong operational risk fundamentals with a builder mindset, curiosity about AI and automation, and the ability to translate operational friction into scalable solutions alongside technical teams.
Required qualifications include 7–8+ years of experience in Operational Risk, Enterprise Risk, Business Risk, Audit, or Internal Controls within financial services, fintech, or tech-enabled businesses. A degree in Risk Management, Finance, Accountancy, Business, or related discipline is preferred. The ideal candidate demonstrates strong understanding of enterprise and operational risk frameworks, governance principles, and internal control practices; exceptional problem-solving and organizational skills; and proven ability to lead cross-functional initiatives and influence senior stakeholders in a multicultural environment.
