Risk Officer, Enterprise Risk Management
We are looking for a Risk Officer to join Morningstar's Enterprise Risk Management team. We are an agile global team, looking for someone who has a real passion for risk management, combining technical acumen with pragmatic strategic logic to support a varied financial services business who doesn't want cookie cutter support. You will play a pivotal role in supporting the business to identify, assess, monitor, and mitigate risks that could impact the company's ability to achieve its objectives. In joining this team, you will be integral to the key strategic initiatives designed to enhance the Group's ERM approach, support business leaders' day to day, and be a proponent of good risk management practices.
Responsibilities

• Supporting the Head of ERM in developing and executing the Group's ERM strategy.
• Managing the full ERM process for subsidiaries, as required, ensuring accurate and timely reporting for both internal and external stakeholders.
• Serving as a technical escalation point for complex risk-related issues.
• Collaborating with risk owners across the organisation to drive meaningful risk discussions and provide constructive challenges.
• Acting as the key liaison for designated functions and regions, offering expert advice on risk management practices.
• Identifying and analysing risk trends, gaps, and incidents to drive continuous enhancement.
• Developing and delivering comprehensive risk training and awareness initiatives across the Group.
• Staying informed on the latest developments in ERM and key jurisdictional governance standards (e.g. UK, US, Australia, Hong Kong, Singapore, and the EU).
• Providing guidance and mentorship to members of the wider team who are tasked with supporting risk management (e.g. Compliance Directors and Country Heads) as needed.

Requirements

• 4-6 years' experience in risk, governance, or technical advisory roles, ideally within a multinational organization or professional services firm.
• Strong understanding of ERM frameworks, governance structures, and risk monitoring practices - coupled with a drive to query the status quo and innovate.
• Experience with multinational ERM programs and corporate governance frameworks.
• Excellent communication, facilitation, and interpersonal skills.
• Strong analytical skills, with the ability to simplify complex issues and synthesize information.
• Risk Management, Chartered Accountant, or similar relevant qualifications are advantageous.
• Ability to manage multiple priorities autonomously and deliver under tight deadlines across global teams and time zones.

Morningstar's hybrid work environment gives you the opportunity to work remotely and collaborate in-person each week. We've found that we're at our best when we're purposely together on a regular basis, at least three days each week. A range of other benefits are also available to enhance flexibility as needs change. No matter where you are, you'll have tools and resources to engage meaningfully with your global colleagues.
