Non-Financial Risk Officer

What does your job as a Non-Financial Risk Officer look like?

As a Non-Financial Risk Officer, you are much more than a risk manager. You are an experienced business partner who helps manage risks, supports organizational change, and actively contributes to the continuous professionalization of processes, controls, and operational activities.

Together with operational teams, management and the second line, you help build an organization that manages risks effectively, seizes opportunities and continuously improves. Depending on your experience and interests, you will have the opportunity to take on a broader role at the intersection of risk management, process improvement and operational excellence.

You will join a role that offers a high level of variety and visibility. You will work at the intersection of processes, risks, controls and collaboration, with a direct impact on the quality of risk management within the business. As an NFRO, you will contribute within our team to the ongoing monitoring and embedding of the non-financial risk framework across the business.

• You strengthen risk management within the business. You organize and facilitate quarterly risk assessments and Process Risk Assessments (PRAs), lead workshops and support process owners in identifying, assessing and managing risks. In addition, you advise on process changes, new initiatives and system enhancements by identifying risks at an early stage and proposing appropriate mitigating controls.
• You oversee the follow-up of risks, issues, and controls. You serve as the first point of contact for operational incidents and ensure a smooth incident management process in close collaboration with IT Incident Managers and Problem Managers. You challenge and support process owners in the follow-up of issues and action plans, work with them to maintain the quality and effectiveness of the Effective Control Framework (ECF), and proactively identify risks, bottlenecks, and dependencies.
• You connect stakeholders and ensure strong governance. You coordinate with stakeholders across the first line and with colleagues from ORM, Compliance, AFO, DPO and other second-line functions. You monitor deadlines, priorities and the quality of deliverables, while supporting reporting, documentation and the collection of control evidence.
• You translate data and risk information into actionable insights. You analyze risk, incident, and control data and turn it into clear insights, recommendations, and dashboards for management and stakeholders. You proactively identify risks, dependencies, and opportunities for improvement.
• You contribute to the continuous improvement of processes and risk management. You play an active role in the professionalization of processes, controls, and ways of working, continuously seeking opportunities to manage risks more efficiently through standardization, automation, digitalization, data analytics, and AI-supported risk monitoring.

This is how you perfectly fit into the team

• You have a strong analytical mindset, quickly identify connections, and can distinguish key priorities from secondary details
• You are able to set priorities and clearly summarize complex information, both verbally and in writing
• You communicate fluently in English and in Dutch or French
• You work proactively, take initiative, and closely monitor cases, action plans, and governance or risk-related processes
• You are a strong stakeholder manager and facilitator who can engage stakeholders effectively and lead meetings with confidence and maturity
• You have experience with Power Platform, Excel, SharePoint, and Copilot
• You have experience in one or more of the following areas: risk management, compliance, internal controls, process management, or audit
• You have knowledge of, or a strong affinity with, operational risk, non-financial risk, and governance
• You thrive in an environment where quality, deadlines, and alignment with multiple stakeholders are essential
