Job Title: Enterprise Risk Implementation Manager
Company: North Co Recruitment
North Co Recruitment are working with an established UK financial services group to appoint an Enterprise Risk Implementation Manager into their Risk function on a 12-month fixed-term contract. This is a build role rather than a maintenance one - you'll be the person turning a new enterprise risk framework into something the business actually runs on, with the senior backing and visibility to shape how risk is owned right across the organisation.
What You'll Do
- Lead the rollout of the enterprise risk framework end to end, from key design decisions through to it being embedded in how the business operates day to day.
- Shape the governance structures, operating model and accountabilities that set out who owns which risks and how they're escalated.
- Build the core risk architecture, including the taxonomy, registers, assessment approach and the supporting system and data, that the business will rely on long after the programme closes.
- Drive genuine first-line ownership through RCSAs, controls design and testing, and a clear remediation cycle.
- Define risk appetite, tolerances and KRIs with senior stakeholders, and turn them into reporting that executives and the board can act on.
- Champion a strong risk culture through training and coaching, working across Finance, Operations, Compliance, operational resilience and third-party risk teams to make the framework stick.

- Hands-on experience designing governance, controls and risk ownership models, and making them work in practice.
- Delivery of large-scale change or implementation programmes, ideally with a risk or control focus.
- The credibility to influence and challenge at executive and board level.
- Familiarity with risk management systems and reporting platforms, alongside a working knowledge of operational resilience, outsourcing risk and regulatory expectations.
- Experience within life, pensions, annuities or long-term savings would be valuable, as would exposure to Solvency II, ORSA, capital frameworks or prudential risk.
