  • Establish resilience requirements for mission-critical payment and banking systems.

  • Evaluate risks associated with major technology migrations and platform transformations.

  • Develop business-continuity and technology-recovery strategies.

  • Establish third-party technology-risk assessment frameworks.

  • Review major incidents and translate lessons learned into structural improvements.

  • Advise executive leadership on emerging fintech risk exposures.

  • Lead enterprise-wide resilience improvement programmes.

Professional Requirements

  • Master’s degree in Risk Management, Finance, Technology, Cybersecurity, Business or a related discipline preferred.

  • 12+ years of progressive experience in financial services, fintech, enterprise risk, technology risk or operational resilience.
