• Identify thematic risk based on KRI/KPIs and control performance reporting; spot trends across incidents, vulnerabilities, change failures, and operational health
• Provide clear, practical recommendations to developers and product teams to improve operational resilience and cyber risk management (e.g., secure-by-design, least privilege, SDLC controls, testing, monitoring)
• Keep stakeholders informed on Technology and Cyber risk status for Wealth Management, including material risk themes, emerging risks, and remediation progress
• Research external events and evolving threats (including AI-related attack patterns) and evaluate potential impact to the line of business
