Help shape and drive HSBC’s Technology & Cyber Security resilience agenda across IWPB.

- Advise senior leaders on the business impact of issues, incidents and top/emerging risks, influencing decisions on controls, investment, resourcing and operating model change to remain within risk appetite.
- Hold risk and control owners accountable for control design and operating effectiveness, driving timely remediation and sustainable improvements where gaps are identified.
- Provide senior oversight and challenge for GRR and regulatory reporting (e.g., RAS, top & emerging risks, risk profile reporting, RMM and relevant Board reporting), ensuring quality, consistency and clear executive narrative.
- Lead horizon scanning across regulatory, technology and threat landscapes, translating external developments into actionable resilience risk priorities and control expectations.
