The Company is seeking a Chief Risk Officer to lead its enterprise-wide risk agenda, setting and implementing strategy, policy, and budget across both financial and non-financial risk. The successful candidate will be responsible for designing and continuously refining the risk management framework, ensuring alignment with global best practices, particularly Basel III. This role involves acting as a trusted adviser to the CEO and Board committees, leading the credit, market, and liquidity risk functions, and overseeing operational resilience, including information security and business continuity.
