  • Several years of experience, ideally more than eight, in Enterprise Risk Management, Internal Controls, Internal Audit, consulting, or auditing, including several years in a leadership role; international experience is ideal.
  • Experience building or fundamentally realigning a group-wide internal control system, not merely overseeing its ongoing operation.

Responsibilities

  • Shape risk-management methodology, standards, and policies, and drive their implementation globally.
  • Advise executive leadership and business units on identifying, assessing, and managing risks; prepare and own risk reporting for executive and supervisory bodies; and continuously improve risk-monitoring methods such as key risk indicators and dashboards.
  • Further develop global standards and policies for the group-wide internal control framework, define its risk-oriented scope, identify material control gaps, enable business units to perform operational controls, and monitor their progress.
  • Ensure the systems are auditable under IDW PS 981/982 and serve as the primary contact for internal and external auditors.
  • Build and lead the Enterprise Risk Management & Internal Controls team, both professionally and disciplinarily.
  • Embed a risk-aware corporate culture through training and workshops, and work closely with risk and internal-control owners across business units and regions.
  • Coordinate closely with Internal Audit, Compliance, Finance, Legal, IT Security, and Sustainability to establish clear responsibilities and avoid duplicated work.

Desired Qualifications

  • A professional examination or relevant certification, such as WP, CPA, CIA, CISA, or CRMA.
