You are:
A problem-solver and a trusted voice on all things operational risk. A big part of your role is detective work - thinking through risk scenarios, locating vulnerabilities, determining responses, and monitoring progress.

You're a collaborative team player who's excited to support the project wherever you're needed.

The work:
  • Identify, evaluate and respond effectively to operational risks for top-tier financial services organizations globally
  • Lead or support small project teams, share insights, and use analytics to find new ways of working that put people and process first

  • Interact confidently with all stakeholders, from senior leadership to team members
  • Work with leadership to determine methods, procedures, and goals on new assignments
  • Stay on top of how new regulations and technologies affect clients' businesses - and ours
Travel:
For now, all Accenture business travel, international and domestic, is currently restricted to client-essential sales/delivery activity only.
Please note: The safety and well-being of our people continues to be the top priority, and our decisions around travel are informed by government COVID-19 response directives, recommendations from leading health authorities and guidance from a number of infectious disease experts.
