The successful candidate will be a practical, business-minded risk leader with a strong background in risk management, particularly within the insurance, banking, asset management, or related industries. This role is pivotal in deepening the company's risk management engagement with its insurance businesses, and the ideal candidate will be adept at applying risk expertise with flexibility and pragmatism to actively support business strategies.

Applicants for the Head of Insurance Business Unit Risk Management position at the company should have a minimum of 15 years' relevant experience and a proven track record of leading teams and partnering with executives. The role requires an individual with excellent communication skills, a strong understanding of business operations, and the ability to influence and manage relationships at the senior executive level. The candidate should be a critical thinker, a fast mover, and a champion of innovation, particularly in the adoption of new tools and methods to enhance the value of risk management. A Bachelor's degree is required, with a preference for an advanced degree or relevant professional certification. The role demands a leader who is a change agent, capable of driving the risk organization forward and fostering a culture of integrity, inclusion, and disciplined risk stewardship.
