The role oversees enterprise risk identification, assessment, and mitigation processes, as well as business continuity and crisis preparedness, acting as a key component of SOPC’s second line of defense.

Enterprise Risk Management (ERM)

• Develop, implement, and maintain SOPC’s enterprise risk management framework, including risk taxonomy, assessment methodologies, risk appetite alignment, and escalation protocols.
• Establish and maintain a comprehensive risk universe covering strategic, operational, financial, and emerging risks, ensuring consistent application of risk taxonomy, assessment criteria, and clear risk ownership across SOPC.
• Coordinate enterprise-wide risk identification and assessment exercises, ensuring risks are consistently captured, evaluated, and prioritized across SOPC functions.
• Maintain SOPC’s enterprise risk register, ensuring timely updates, validation of risk ownership, and monitoring of mitigation actions.
• Prepare consolidated risk reports and dashboards for SOPC leadership, highlighting key risk exposures, trends, and residual risks.

Risk Monitoring & Integration

• Monitor the effectiveness of risk mitigation actions and escalate material risks or emerging exposures in line with approved governance and escalation thresholds.
• Support the integration of risk considerations into strategic planning, major initiatives, and operational decision-making processes.
• Coordinate with Internal Audit to inform risk-based audit planning and provide updates on enterprise risk developments and residual risk profiles.

Business Continuity & Crisis Management

• Lead the development and maintenance of SOPC’s business continuity management (BCM) framework, including business impact analyses (BIA), continuity strategies, and recovery plans.
• Coordinate the design, testing, and periodic review of business continuity and crisis management plans across SOPC functions.
• Plan and conduct scenario-based exercises and simulations to assess SOPC’s preparedness for disruptions and crisis situations.

Resilience Testing & Continuous Improvement

• Monitor and assess the effectiveness of business continuity and crisis response arrangements, identifying gaps and recommending enhancements.
• Track continuity-related incidents and lessons learned to inform updates to risk and continuity frameworks.
• Contribute to the ongoing maturity assessment and continuous improvement of SOPC’s enterprise risk and resilience capabilities.

Coordination & Advisory

• Provide guidance and support to SOPC functions on risk management and continuity requirements, methodologies, and best practices.
• Coordinate with Governance & Frameworks and Compliance & Regulatory Affairs to ensure alignment across GRC frameworks.
• Promote risk awareness and resilience thinking across SOPC through structured engagement and guidance.
