About The Role Reporting to the Head of Risk Management, the Lead of Operational & Technology Risk owns the enterprise operational and resiliency risk program across a regulated, globally distributed brokerage platform. This is a builder's role. You will design the operational risk framework, including the enterprise risk taxonomy and appetite structure, stand up risk assessment and control assurance programs, own issue and risk event management, and build AI-native tooling that makes risk management faster, sharper, and practical for the people who actually own it. Success requires someone who thrives with autonomy, builds risk practices that hold up under scale and regulatory scrutiny while still letting the business move quickly, and can translate operational risk into decisions the business, executives, and the Board will act on. You will partner closely with Engineering, Product, Operations, Treasury, Security, Legal, and Compliance, which separately owns programs that integrate with the firm-wide operational risk framework. What You'll Do Build and Own the Operational Risk Framework Build the enterprise operational risk taxonomy, risk appetite statements, and supporting policy architecture. Establish and lead the operational risk and resiliency forum, driving genuine challenge and alignment rather than status review. Produce reporting to the Global Risk Committee and the Board that carries a clear point of view and prompts decisions. Establish decision frameworks, escalation thresholds, and exception governance that hold under regulatory and partner scrutiny. Get Ahead of Change, New Products, and New Markets Own risk assessment for new products, partners, markets, and platform capabilities, including emerging asset classes, tokenized securities, and international market entry. Build a change risk process that accelerates safe launches rather than create unnecessary friction. Establish and run the RCSA program across a global, partner-dependent operating model. Serve as a risk advisor to Operations, Product, Security, and Engineering leaders throughout the product development lifecycle. Set the Enterprise Standard and Assure Controls Own the enterprise methodology every risk program conforms to, including taxonomy, rating scale, assessment approach, defense in depth control framework, and KRI design conventions. Build the operational control testing program covering ICOC and key operational controls, including methodology, sampling, deficiency classification, and remediation tracking to closure.
