Operational Risk Manager Asset Management

At KBC Asset Management, we are ambitious. Every day we protect and grow our clients' assets to help them realise their dreams. At the same time, we like to avoid risk.

Of course. That's in the best interest of our employees, our business and our clients. As a Company Risk Manager, you contribute to achieving our goals by setting the risk appetite, investigating risk signals and helping our business in gaining effectiveness in the operational risk domain.

Together with your colleagues in the Company Risk team, you'll be on a mission to:

• be a front runner in operational (non-financial) risk, impactfully contributing to KBC Asset Management and KBC Group projects;
• design the internal control environment in a way to decrease operational risk exposure (and operational risk incidents hereafter) and watch over it;
• enhance and contribute to the risk culture in KBC Asset Management and KBC Group by strengthening the risk skills and knowledge of your colleagues. Always in close co-operation with all our stakeholders.
