Senior Enterprise Risk Officer

A growing $28B+ Southeast regional bank — expanding fast through acquisition — is hiring a Senior Enterprise Risk Officer to build out its Risk & Control Self-Assessment (RCSA) and Operational Risk governance function from the ground up. This isn't a seat in an already-built machine. You'll design the framework, own it end-to-end, and have a clear path to building your own team once it's established. If you're currently one layer inside a much larger bank's risk hierarchy and want real ownership, this is that move. What you'll own: Lead the design and execution of RCSA across assigned business units Serve as the enterprise-wide go-to on risk assessment Provide credible challenge to the Operational Risk team on testing and control execution Develop and report Key Risk Indicators (KRIs) — targets, tolerances, limits Manage the KRI action plan process, including root-cause analysis and benchmarking Prepare board- and executive-committee-level risk reporting Shape risk management policy, procedure, and framework as the program matures What you bring: 7–10+ years in Enterprise Risk, Operational Risk, or Internal Audit — banking background required Direct, hands-on experience owning an RCSA program (not just participating in one) Experience building KRIs and risk appetite frameworks, and translating them for senior leadership A track record of pushing back and escalating early, not just documenting Comfort operating in a function that's still being built, not one that's fully mature Bachelor's degree in business or related field Location & logistics: Greenville, SC — relocation assistance and sign-on bonus available. Must be authorized to work in the US without sponsorship (US citizen or Green Card holder). Compensation: Competitive base + annual bonus + equity, commensurate with experience.
