Description

Ensure Trust in If — Make Risk Part of Everyday Decisions. At If, integrity, transparency, and delivery build lasting confidence with customers, partners, and colleagues. As a modern insurance company, we depend on both technology and third parties — making a solid, well-governed risk framework pivotal for clear oversight, accountability, and informed decision-making. About the role As Tech Risk Manager, you will help make technology risk understandable, actionable, and embedded into everyday decision-making. The role has a clear process and collaboration focus rather than a purely control-driven one. In addition you will act as ICT Third Party Risk Management Lead, with end-to-end responsibility for how ICT supplier-related risks are identified, understood, and managed across If. By working closely with stakeholders across ICT, you provide clear guidance, and influence how decisions are made. It is through you that risk appetite, strategy, and regulatory expectations are turned into ways of working that support both resilience and delivery. Reporting to the Head of IT Risk Management, you support informed, risk-based decisions by providing structure, transparency, and guidance. While formal risk decisions remain with designated risk owners, you act as a trusted partner who enables dialogue, shared understanding, and sound judgement. In practice, you help the organisation answer questions such as how to manage supplier risk without slowing progress, how to create clarity and ownership in complex supplier landscapes, and how to meet regulatory expectations in a pragmatic and sustainable way. In this role, you will: Develop and improve business-aligned ways of working to manage technology risk.

That makes strong governance and risk management essential, with clear ownership, effective oversight, and decision forums that enable timely, risk-based decisions. The IT Risk Management unit, part of the broader GRC function within IT Security, supports If in making risk-aware decisions that balance delivery, resilience, and regulatory expectations. We enable good risk practices, without unnecessary bureaucracy. Who are you? You enjoy creating clarity in complex environments and building structure that actually helps people deliver. You are comfortable working across technology, business, and suppliers, and you see risk management as a way to enable better decisions. The ability to work independently as well as in cooperation with others is essential. Therefore, you easily build new relationships and collaborate with others, turning this into a real asset in your work.
