Talent Acquisition (TA) Risk & Compliance (TARC) Sr. Risk Managers (Risk III)

Talent Acquisition (TA) Risk & Compliance (TARC) Sr. Risk Managers (Risk III) partner with key members of TA, TA Tech, Legal, Workplace Trust, Public Relations, Employee Relations, and other central compliance or support teams to manage the lifecycle of a complex cross-functional risk program(s). This is a global role, and they provide consultative support to partners to identify opportunities for control improvements with the objective of mitigating risk and improving compliance and operational performance.

Sr. Risk Managers are effective leaders, known for diving deep into various HR, TA, or regulatory/compliance subject matters, taking ownership for unmitigated risks, and encouraging innovative and pragmatic solutions to complex problems. They work with stakeholders to translate ambiguous process, legal, and regulatory obligations into system, operations, or process requirements, monitoring the effectiveness of controls designed to meet obligations on an ongoing basis, and/or developing and leading remediation plans to mitigate risk. They deliver independently with limited guidance, navigating and creating clarity where business problems and solutions are undefined. Projects and programs may be driven by new legal requirements, solution implementations, processes, products, or emerging risk issues.
