Non-Executive Director - Risk and Risk Committee

The opportunity A UK organisation is seeking a Non-Executive Director with a strong risk background to strengthen its board’s oversight of risk and, in time, to contribute to or chair its Risk Committee. As the risk environment grows more complex  spanning financial, operational, regulatory, technological and reputational exposures  boards increasingly value a director who can bring genuine depth in risk management and the independent judgement to challenge how well those risks are understood and controlled. This is a governance appointment. The role is to provide oversight and constructive challenge of the organisation’s risk management framework and its most significant exposures — not to run the risk function, which remains the responsibility of management. The successful candidate will bring real risk expertise to the boardroom and contribute as a full member of the board across all its responsibilities.
