Senior Director, Head of Audit Enterprise & Operational Risk
At BNY, our culture allows us to run our company better and enables employees’ growth and success. As a leading global financial services company, we influence a large portion of the world’s investible assets. Our teams leverage AI and breakthrough technologies to collaborate with clients and deliver transformative solutions that redefine industries and uplift communities.
We’re seeking a Sr. Director, Head of Audit Enterprise & Operational Risk to join our Internal Audit team. This role is located in New York.
In this role, you’ll impact the organization by leading the global, risk‑based audit plan for ERM and Operational Risk, delivering end‑to‑end assurance over governance, risk appetite frameworks, risk data aggregation and reporting, risk culture, and related controls. You’ll elevate audit methodology and tooling, lead a global team, and ensure alignment with regulatory expectations and internal standards.
Responsibilities
Own the global, risk‑based audit plan for ERM and Operational Risk across the group and material legal entities; align coverage to the bank’s risk appetite and regulatory expectations; provide independent reporting to the CAE, Audit Committee, and Management Committees.
Deliver end‑to‑end assurance over ERM: governance and risk appetite frameworks, risk taxonomy, risk data aggregation and reporting (e.g., BCBS 239), stress testing interfaces (ICAAP/CCAR), and risk culture effectiveness.
Provide deep ORM coverage: RCSA design/operating effectiveness, KRI framework, loss data and scenario analysis, issue management and remediation, third‑party/outsourcing risk, conduct and fraud risk, and operational resilience; partner with audit teams covering front‑line implementation and execution.
Challenge the 1LOD/2LOD model, assess maturity of the three‑lines model, validate management action plans, perform root‑cause analysis, and drive durable control enhancements.
Coordinate annual overall opinions on effectiveness of risk management and internal control; ensure methodology and reporting align with SR 13‑1; present conclusions to the Audit Committee.
Elevate audit methodology and tooling: embed data analytics, continuous monitoring, and thematic reviews; maintain an up‑to‑date audit universe and risk assessment; ensure QAIP and conformance with IIA Global Standards and the BNY Audit Manual.
Lead and develop a high‑performing global team (onshore/offshore), set staffing strategy and budget, cultivate subject‑matter expertise in ERM/ORM, and standardize workpapers, ratings, and issue validation.
Qualifications
15+ years in internal audit/risk at a G‑SIB or comparable complex institution.
Proven credibility with global supervisors (Fed/OCC/FDIC, ECB SSM, PRA, etc.).
Expert knowledge of Basel expectations (including BCBS 239 and operational resilience regimes) and the three lines model.
Exceptional board level communication skills.
Advanced degree preferred.
Professional certifications such as CIA, FRM, CISA, or CFA are a plus.
