This is a key role in supporting the development and implementation of the Group Risk Management Policy and Framework, whilst also helping to embed a strong risk culture across the organisation.

The Role

Responsibilities include:

Maintaining and evolving risk appetite statements, metrics, and escalation protocols. Partnering with the business to integrate risk management into strategic decision-making.

The ideal candidate will have some experience of working in risk management within the financial services sector. You should have a strong grasp of risk management processes and controls, with the ability to analyse and interpret risk data effectively. Proficiency in Microsoft Office, particularly Excel, is essential, along with experience in facilitating risk and control self-assessments. Strong communication skills are key, especially the ability to engage with stakeholders across all levels of the IHP Group and produce clear, insightful reports that support strategic decision-making.


Ideally, you will also bring knowledge of the retail financial services industry, including investment platforms, ISAs, pensions, and other investment products.
