Risk Manager, Operational Risk Advisor

Do you want to be part of an organization that's dedicated to helping Capital One identify, manage and effectively mitigate risk - for our customers, our communities and our associates? As part of the Operational Risk Management (ORM) team, that's exactly what you'll do. Working with talented associates, you'll provide oversight and effective challenge to help ensure that our businesses effectively manage operational risk. You'll also bring your unique perspectives and experiences to foster a more rigorous, curious, and creative environment and to drive strategic solutions.

As part of ORM's Challenge and Advisory team, you'll serve as both an effective challenger and a trusted advisor, performing analysis on risk information to advance risk management practices in our lines of business. This team touches all areas of Capital One that incur operational risk - from new products to strategic initiatives to risk events and beyond. In partnership with your ORM teammates and key business stakeholders across the enterprise, you'll help lead the charge that will transform how risk-related data drives business decisions and, ultimately, how Capital One maintains a robust operational risk management profile.
