The Technology Assurance & Operational Risk Specialist is responsible for delivering independent second-line operational risk assurance, with a particular focus on ICT, information security, cyber, AI and operational resilience.

The role is highly hands-on and combines independent control assurance with the ability to translate operational risk information into meaningful risk insight that supports Executive and Board decision-making and contributes to the development of a strong risk culture across LHV. The role requires a strong understanding of technology and operational risk together with the ability to independently assess control effectiveness, identify emerging risks and provide credible challenge across the Bank.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead the RCSA process for designated business areas and provide independent challenge, ensuring key operational risks, controls and treatment plans accurately reflect the Bank’s risk profile.
  • Critically analyse information from incidents, complaints, RCSAs, control assurance, third-party risk, change risk and other operational risk activities to identify and clearly articulate emerging risks, systemic control weaknesses and cross-cutting themes.
  • Produce high-quality operational risk management information that translates risk information into meaningful insight, clear recommendations and practical actions for Executive Management and Board Committees.
  • Work closely with the Head of Financial Risk to develop an integrated view of the Bank's overall risk profile, recognising the interaction between financial and non-financial risks.
  • Contribute to the continued enhancement of the Operational Risk Framework by identifying opportunities to strengthen assurance activities, risk insight and regulatory compliance.

Key Capabilities

  • Strong second-line assurance capability, with the ability to independently design, execute and document risk-based control assurance reviews particularly across ICT, Information security, cyber, operational resilience and AI risk.
  • Demonstrable expertise across ICT, information security, cyber, operational resilience and AI risk, with the ability to provide credible technical challenge to both business and technology stakeholders.
  • Strong analytical capability, with the ability to translate complex operational risk information into meaningful management insight and Board-level reporting.
  • Proven ability to identify systemic risks and control weaknesses by connecting information across multiple operational risk sources.
  • Strong judgement, influencing and stakeholder management skills, with confidence engaging senior management and Board Committees.
  • Sound understanding of regulatory expectations relating to operational risk, ICT risk, operational resilience and technology governance within a regulated environment.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
