At BC&P, we bring a builder's mindset to work, just like the business owners we serve. Small businesses are a different kind of customer. They're the people turning ideas into opportunities, and opportunities into livelihoods. When we build for them, we build something bigger. That's why we have a high bar for quality. We own the work end to end, turning today's insights into tomorrow's results, together.
Because that's how we create impact we can be proud of.
In Business Cards and Payments (BC&P), we are on a mission to pave the path for businesses to do more business. Within the BC&P Operating Office, we serve as the operational engine, enabling alignment, velocity, and resilience across the organization. Our office is comprised of three pillars - Strategic, Organizational, and Top of House Operations - that collectively drive our commitment to operational excellence.
We are seeking a forward-thinking Principal Risk Associate to help advance our BC&P operational strategy.
You will help lead automation, artificial intelligence, and innovative ways to elevate the maturity of our operational processes along with ensuring proper regulatory compliance.
By partnering with stakeholders to implement scalable, technology-forward solutions, you will drive adherence to well managed practices while identifying and operationalizing process improvements.
The ideal candidate is a detail-oriented professional with a passion for innovation, improvements, and compliance. You thrive on staying ahead of the curve, utilizing the latest industry trends and technological advancements to optimize internal processes. As a collaborative influencer, you excel at building strong relationships across cross-functional teams, championing process efficiency, and actively contributing to the maturity of our process and control ecosystem. You are a self-starter who works autonomously, managing multiple priorities and initiatives with minimal supervision.
Joining our team means operating at the intersection of risk management and modern technology. We are looking for a thinker who not only understands risk but actively seeks ways to simplify and modernize how we manage it. If you enjoy navigating dynamic environments, influencing change through data-driven insights, and driving efficiency, this role provides the platform to make a meaningful impact.
