About the opportunity
PQE Partners is working on a newly created opportunity with an ASX-listed financial services organisation undergoing significant operational and risk transformation, including the embedding of enhanced risk and control frameworks within the business.
This role sits within the business and is designed for someone coming from an operations background who is looking to step into risk. You’ll work closely with frontline teams to support how risk and controls are embedded into day-to-day processes, rather than operating in a purely advisory or oversight capacity.
It’s a strong opportunity to build hands-on experience across risk, controls and incident management in a fast-paced, customer-focused environment.
Key Responsibilities
Please apply directly or reach out for a confidential discussion.
