Center 3 (19075), United States of America, McLean, Virginia Sr. Manager, Cyber Risk & Analysis

For years, the cybersecurity community has debated whether the CISO should report to the CIO or not. In regulated financial services, the answer is: both. The first-line CISO has operational responsibilities and reports to the CIO. The second-line Chief Tech Risk Officer (CTRO) and the Technology Risk Management (TRM) organization have broader responsibilities for cybersecurity but also reliability, software quality, resilience, and other technology risks. The CTRO is independent, reports to the Chief Risk Officer, and oversees the work of the CISO and the CIO.

This position, Sr. Manager, Technology & Cyber Risk Advisor, will play a key role in the organization’s second line of defense risk identification program by independently overseeing the organization’s cybersecurity and technology risk taking and providing expertise and challenge during ongoing assessments.

• Perform the review and effective challenge of technology and cybersecurity risks through business-driven assessment activities (e.g., risk and control self assessment (RCSA) activities, scenario analysis, new products and services, etc.), to include providing expertise and advice on risk themes and mitigation strategies

• Monitor, report, and escalate metric performance, identify changes or trends in the risk profile, and brief senior management

• Collaborate effectively and build trusted relationships with colleagues, stakeholders, and leaders across multiple organizations to achieve objectives.

• Communicate in a compelling manner, with a strong point of view, to any audience, including internal and external stakeholders

• Leverage business and tech/cyber domain expertise to raise the level of challenge activities to a strategic focus

• Constructively debate issues and connect the dots across various assessments (examples include assessments of new initiatives, scenario analysis, challenge of proposed mitigation plans and risk acceptances, etc.)

• Partner with first and second line peers to succinctly frame and report on technology and cybersecurity risks relative to risk appetite

• Identify opportunities to influence risk-taking strategies and ensure that aggregate risk is understood

• Introduce forward-looking risk measures that are relevant to the Lines of Business

• Operate a continuous improvement approach by reviewing and challenging the design and operation of processes
