Deputy Chief Risk Officer

Connectly Recruiting LLC

Our client, a growing publicly traded bank based in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, is hiring a Deputy Chief Risk Officer to help lead its Enterprise Risk Management function through an active period of growth and acquisition. This is a newly created executive role with a direct path to Chief Risk Officer.

If you've built your career leading enterprise risk at a $10 billion-plus financial institution and you're ready for the next step, this is a rare opportunity to step into a true second-in-command role with a bank that's scaling fast.

About the Role

The Deputy Chief Risk Officer will manage the day-to-day operations of the Risk organization, giving the Chief Risk Officer room to focus on strategy, the Board, and acquisition activity. You'll lead a team and oversee a broader risk organization, with responsibility across every major enterprise risk discipline: risk governance, risk assessments, Model Risk, Third-Party Risk, Data Governance, and Business Continuity.

This role is built for someone who has already led enterprise-wide risk at scale, not a specialist in a single discipline like Compliance, Internal Audit, Credit Risk, or BSA/AML.

What You'll Do

Support the CRO in the tactical and strategic management of the Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) Program
Lead the annual Risk Assessment Program, including risk appetite development with the Board
Own Key Risk Indicator development, monitoring, and executive-level risk reporting
Direct policy development and regulatory exam readiness across the Risk function
Evaluate risk during acquisitions and lead integration planning as the bank grows
Oversee Model Risk Management, Third-Party Risk, Data Governance, and Business Continuity/Disaster Recovery
Step in as Chief Risk Officer when authority is delegated

What We're Looking For

7+ years of progressive risk management experience in banking or financial services
Enterprise risk leadership from a $10 billion+ institution with a mature ERM framework
Broad experience across multiple risk disciplines, not a single functional background
Bachelor's degree required; MBA, FRM, PRM, CRCM, or CRC designation a plus
Strong communication and presentation skills, with the ability to influence senior leadership and the Board

Why This Role

Succession path and mentorship with a CRO with extensive banking experience
Growth through an active acquisition strategy
Real impact shaping the Enterprise Risk Management framework
Strong, executive-visible culture

Relocation assistance is available for this 100% onsite role.
