Senior Risk Associate
The Liquidity, Market, and Capital Risk Oversight (LMCRO) team is seeking a motivated candidate for a Senior Risk Associate, Risk Management position. LMCRO is a second line of defense function responsible for oversight of the company's measurement and management of liquidity risk, market risk-taking and management, and capital measurement and management. This includes regulatory stress testing (CCAR, ILST and other resilience analysis), regulatory requirements (Basel), overall capital and liquidity frameworks, and regulatory compliance.
In a time of banking industry and macroeconomic uncertainty, coupled with many proposed prudential regulatory changes, this associate will get exposure to a variety of topics and have an opportunity to make an impact in how the firm responds to these challenges in a well managed manner.
The second line of defense is both an expert advisor to the first line and an effective challenger of first line risk activities. The successful candidate will help to influence the company's approaches and processes for managing capital and liquidity, and will build strong partnerships with the first line of defense teams and other internal independent review and challenge organizations (e.g., Enterprise Risk Management, Model Risk, and Internal Audit). This individual must be able to effectively communicate and influence partners across the company and across multiple levels of the organization.
Risk Associates at Capital One are highly motivated risk and process management professionals with excellent analytical, organizational, and communication skills. These skills allow the Risk Associate to gain insights, and act as a change agent to influence their partner organizations.
As Capital One evolves to meet the ever-changing technology landscape, so do our risk managers. A successful risk manager operates from a foundation of knowledge about the Line of Business with whom they are working, laws/regulations, processes and associated controls, and good risk management practices. They are forward thinking, quick to adapt, and technologically adept. Risk Managers have a high level of exposure across lines of business and have the opportunity to create and implement innovative solutions to appropriately manage risks.
The ideal candidate will be a highly-motivated risk or process management professional with excellent process improvement and communication skills. The candidate will be detail-oriented and results focused, and will have a proven record of problem solving and collaborating with others.
