We are looking for an Interim Head of Risk to lead a risk team which will enable the bank as a whole to understand its risks and to facilitate and guide business units in risk matters. This is an interim position, for which we are seeking a risk specialist who also has very strong general management experience.
The risk function within the bank is under developed and requires a substantial amount of support. There has been some upheaval within recent years and so the interim manager shall instil a sense of stability within the team.
Responsible for several direct reports, including the Heads of Compliance, AML, Operational, Market and Credit Risk, you shall manage any necessary recruitment and restructuring.
The successful candidate shall represent the Bank on risk issues and liaise with third parties such as rating agencies, correspondent banks and the Central Bank.
You shall act as risk champion within the bank, helping to develop a solid infrastructure which will take the organisation forward in terms of risk awareness.
The role shall be based in Kuwait and so you should demonstrate some experience of adapting to international environments.
