The Corporate Security and Fraud Risk Management Manager drives strategy across both disciplines, takes a forward-looking risk approach, proactively communicates and escalates material risks through management and committee reporting processes, and ensures continuous enhancement of second line programs. The position provides meaningful risk reporting and insights to senior management and risk committees, supports regulatory examinations and audit activities, promotes ongoing program improvement, and leverages Archer and other governance tools to support effective risk management and oversight across the enterprise. The incumbent should be able to operate independently, clearly communicate program objectives, risks, and progress, and ensure the timely and effective execution of second line responsibilities.
