Risk Management Strategist

1 week ago

Johannesburg, Gauteng, South Africa IOCO Full time
Role Overview

We are seeking a forward-thinking Risk Management Strategist who is passionate about making a real difference in organisations. If you're someone who thrives on intellectual challenges, enjoys diving deep into complex problems, and gets excited about crafting innovative solutions, we want to hear from you.

This role goes beyond traditional risk management — it's an opportunity to shape the future of GRC practices across diverse industries and jurisdictions. You'll work with a dynamic team that values fresh perspectives and encourages creative thinking.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Pioneer innovative GRC frameworks that truly work in practice, not just in theory
  • Guide organisations through their GRC transformation journeys, from strategy to implementation
  • Challenge conventional thinking to develop practical, cutting-edge solutions
  • Foster a culture where compliance becomes a business enabler rather than a hindrance

Client Partnership and Advisory

  • Build trusted relationships with clients across all organisational levels
  • Transform complex regulatory requirements into clear, actionable strategies
  • Lead organisations through critical risk and compliance challenges
  • Design and deliver engaging training that makes GRC accessible and meaningful

Technical Excellence

  • Develop and implement comprehensive GRC frameworks aligned with international standards
  • Lead risk assessments that drive real business value
  • Design practical compliance monitoring and testing programmes
  • Navigate complex regulatory landscapes across multiple jurisdictions
  • Harness technology to revolutionise GRC processes

Your Expertise:

  • 10+ years of hands-on GRC experience, with at least 5 years in consulting
  • Proven track record of implementing successful GRC programmes
  • International compliance experience highly valued
  • Deep understanding of relevant legislation and standards: e.g., Data Protection (POPIA/PAIA/GDPR), Financial Crime (FICA/POCA/PRECCA/POCDATARA), Governance (Companies Act, King Reports)
  • Experience in developing and delivering GRC training programmes from Board level to employee level

Qualifications:

  • Relevant degree: Com (Law/Risk Management/Internal Audit), LLB, or equivalent or Post-Graduate Diploma in Compliance Management (University of Johannesburg)
  • CPrac(SA) and/or AMLC Prac(SA) designation (Required at a minimum)
  • Active membership with the Compliance Institute (Southern Africa)
  • IRMSA membership (advantageous)

The Person We're Looking For:

  • Is a natural problem-solver who enjoys tackling complex challenges
  • Someone who thinks differently and challenges the status quo
  • A team player with the ability to work independently
  • An excellent communicator who can translate complexity into clarity (in writing and verbally)
  • A professional who leads by example and upholds the highest ethical standards
  • Someone who's genuinely passionate about GRC and its potential to transform organisations
  • A hands-on project manager who both strategizes and delivers, comfortable leading and executing projects from planning to implementation
  • A self-driven professional who thrives on identifying and creating new opportunities, demonstrated through proactive business development and relationship building
