Chief Risk Officer (CRO)

The Company is seeking a Chief Risk Officer (CRO) to spearhead its enterprise-wide risk management, regulatory compliance, and safety programs. The CRO will be responsible for designing and executing risk management frameworks across all business lines and geographies, overseeing regulatory compliance with authorities such as the SEC and FINRA, and leading regulatory examinations and audits. This role demands a leader who can foster a culture of risk awareness and continuous improvement, and who will ensure the development of scalable policies, procedures, and controls aligned with the business strategy. The successful candidate will also be a trusted advisor to senior leadership, delivering actionable insights and recommendations, and will be instrumental in the company's global growth and governance credibility. Applicants for the CRO position at the company must have a Bachelor's degree, with an advanced degree strongly preferred, and at least 15 years of senior leadership experience in risk management, compliance, or governance within financial services or fintech. Deep expertise in alternative investments, regulatory treatment, and product structure is essential, as is a proven track record of regulatory compliance in highly regulated environments. The role requires strong knowledge of U.S. securities regulation and familiarity with international frameworks, as well as experience in leading and scaling specialized global teams. Professional certifications such as FRM, CRCMP, CFA, CPA, or CAMS are a plus. The ideal candidate will have the ability to translate complex regulatory concepts into practical business solutions and will be adept at managing technology and data risks.
