• Coordinate the management and governance of incidents, issues, and remediation activity, ensuring effective tracking and visibility
• Support core risk processes (e.g. risk declarations, maturity assessments, AI and Data Governance)
• Develop and enhance centralised risk reporting and analytics using Insight and Power BI, with a focus on clarity, insight, and visual impact
• Support KRI reporting and governance, maintaining effective stakeholder engagement across business units
• Contribute to embedding risk frameworks, governance practices, and risk culture initiatives across AUSPAC
• Provide ad hoc analysis and support for strategic, cross-functional, and executive-level initiatives

• Sound understanding of risk management frameworks and governance practices
• Experience managing incidents, issues, and remediation, with a focus on governance and delivery outcomes
• Ability to translate data into clear, actionable insights to support decision-making
• Proven ability to operate in complex, fast-paced environments and navigate ambiguity
• Strong stakeholder engagement skills, with the ability to influence and challenge across first and second line
• Self-driven, with the ability to take ownership and deliver outcomes independently
• Continuous improvement mindset, with experience enhancing reporting, processes, or governance practices
