This role is highly visible requiring interaction with senior stakeholders across all business divisions globally. What will you be doing? Your primary role will be to support the Group Risk team to deliver independent second-line risk management oversight of the Group’s financial risks. This is a developing discipline for the Group and so the candidate must be someone who is comfortable contributing to the development of technical processes as well as delivering on the day to day work requirements of the role. The individual will be responsible for working closely with Group stakeholders to review, analyse and report on the financial risks the business is taking in pursuit of it’s strategic objectives. The individual will be responsible for monitoring the Group’s risk appetite with regard to financial risks and would be expected to support the annual or as required ad hoc update of the Group’s Risk Appetite Framework such that deliverables meet the required timeline. The individual would be expected to contribute to design and review of the Group Risk Framework and the oversight of its effectiveness.

What are we looking for? This is a technical role which would suit someone who has experience of financial risk oversight in the insurance industry, including experience or involvement in supporting organisations to meet their financial risk regulatory requirements.

The successful individual is likely to be someone who has a good level of knowledge regarding technical scenario analysis and stress testing. This role would suit someone who has developed a good grounding in risk management, and who is looking to take the next step in their risk management career. The successful candidate would have the opportunity to contribute to how the Group risk team develops its capabilities now and into the future at an exciting time for the Group. The successful applicant must be willing to work in a team environment, attend the office, and build relationships with colleagues to effectively contribute to the culture of the Group Risk function. We are looking for someone who is therefore willing to participate in shaping the direction of the team, to help us achieve our goals, and ultimately to support our purpose of helping the group grow safely. What do we offer in return? A career that you define. Our business succeeds by allowing our people to make a mark in the areas they care about most: personal development, volunteering, and fundraising for charity, or creating new insurance products that address society’s greatest challenges. And we know that separate home and work lives don't really exist. If you're happy and healthy at home, you're more likely to be happy and fulfilled at work – and vice versa. That's why we do our best to support our people in every aspect of their lives. Diversity and Inclusion At Howden we value diversity - there is no one Howden ‘personality type’. Instead, we’re looking for individuals who share the same values as us: • Our successes have all come from someone brave enough to try something new, • We support each other, in the small everyday moments and the bigger challenges, • We are determined to make a positive difference, at work and beyond We consider our people our chief competitive advantage and as such we treat colleagues, candidates, clients, and business partners with equality, fairness, and respect – regardless of age, disability, race, religion or belief, gender, sexual orientation, marital status, or family circumstances.
