Graduate Risk Management Analyst

Risk and Control management is all about proactively identifying risks to business activities and implementing controls to prevent these risks from occurring. It’s an important role to ensure we meet the expectations of clients, consumers, regulators and shareholders.

We have an exciting opportunity to join Experian as a Graduate Risk Management Analyst. You will work as part of the team responsible for driving transformation, performance improvement and project execution across Experian’s operational risk transformation project.

You will play a key role in developing the future state of our controls, ultimately helping to protect our business.

In this particular role, you will

• Identify and analyse key trends utilising information and research to develop next step recommendations.
• Partner with business stakeholders to maintain risk documentation and assessments.
• Support policy owners in developing business implementation plans to enable effective risk mitigation and control operation.
• Implement risk and third party risk improvement plans with global and regional leaders.
• Perform monitoring and oversight of risk and control documentation and effectiveness. 

This position will enable you to develop your understanding of risk and control frameworks, in the context of a complex global business, and gain exposure to senior leaders across all regions and business units. It’s a fast-paced role requiring an analytical mind-set and an ability to solve problems with practical solutions. You will have the opportunity to work as part of our controls and testing, or group risk team over the course of the graduate opportunity.

Depending on your interests and background, you could be involved in testing controls to establish whether they are designed and operate effectively, building reporting and data analytics to support risk and control oversight, developing policies and control documentation or interacting with stakeholders on effective risk management practices. This will mean that you have the opportunity to engage with a variety of stakeholders to support the risk management transformation across the global business.  

You’ll be working on documentation so it’s critical you are a clear and concise writer, with excellent attention to detail. You’ll also have exposure to a range of stakeholders so we are looking for a self-starter with excellent communication and interpersonal skills.

Our Graduate roles are permanent opportunities, and you’ll also take part in our 2 year structured Early Careers Development Programme when you join us which is packed with workshops, short-courses & online material designed to help kick-start your career.

Our concept is simple. We believe in expanding horizons – it’s what makes Experian a global leader and a Top UK Tech Employer.

Qualifications

You’ll have recently achieved or be on track to achieve a minimum 2:2 degree classification in any degree subject, tied with the ability to analyse and solve problems. 

We are looking for graduates who have presence. Those who can walk into a room and hold their own alongside other business and technical professionals. It’s important you can build, influence, lead and maintain relationships at all levels.
