Senior Risk Manager

If you're looking for a role where your voice is heard, your expertise genuinely matters, and you can help shape a risk function that’s trusted across the business, this one’s worth a closer look.

We’re supporting a highly respected London Market insurer that’s investing heavily in risk excellence. They’re known for being collaborative, commercially minded and genuinely supportive—an environment where risk isn’t a tick-box exercise, but a core part of decision-making.

They’re now looking for an experienced Senior Risk Manager to take a central role in maintaining, developing and embedding their Risk Management Framework across the business. If you enjoy working closely with senior underwriters, operations, and leadership teams—and want true visibility—this is a great opportunity.

In this role, you’ll working across the full breadth of operational and enterprise risk. Your work will include:

• Keeping the Risk Management Framework current, effective and aligned to business strategy.
• Ensuring the risk universe, risk register and controls remain accurate, up to date and reflective of the business’s evolving risk profile.
• Leading and coordinating risk and control assessments with stakeholders across the organisation.
• Monitoring, interpreting and reporting Key Risk Indicators, helping the business understand what really matters.
• Investigating and escalating risk incidents, losses and near misses—and ensuring lessons translate into meaningful action.
• Preparing engaging, high-quality reports and materials for committees, working groups, and external stakeholders.
• Playing a hands-on role in ORSA development, Internal Model review, validation and assurance exercises.
• Supporting key deliverables such as stress & scenario testing and ESG/climate-related risk analysis.

This is a role with real variety and impact—ideal for someone who enjoys both the technical depth of risk and the relationship-building side of influencing a busy organisation.

• At least 5 years’ Risk Management experience in the Lloyd’s or London Market.
• Strong communication skills and the confidence to work with senior stakeholders across underwriting, operations and leadership teams.
• Experience with ERM platforms (Decision Focus or similar).
• A proactive, analytical mindset with sharp attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple priorities.
• Solid understanding of prudential requirements (Lloyd’s, PRA, Solvency II/UK).
• Strong MS Office skills and the ability to turn data into insight.

You’ll be joining a business where risk is valued, supported and properly resourced. The team is collaborative, the leadership is engaged, and there’s plenty of room to contribute ideas, shape processes, and influence a growing organisation.

If you’re looking for a role where you can build strong relationships, broaden your remit and have a clear line of sight to senior decision-makers, this is a fantastic opportunity.
