Job Brief

The Head of Business Risk & Control leads Moneybox Advice’s consolidated risk and control function: the business-side ownership of advice controls, operational controls, and the oversight of outsourced services and third-party vendors. Two Managers report in (Advice Risk & Control and Operations Risk & Control) and the role is the senior first-line counterpart to compliance leader.

The role focuses both on how the service is working - operational performance, customer outcomes, control effectiveness - and on the arrangements of the service - outsourcing, third-party contracts and resilience.

Substantial risk and control leadership experience in a regulated retail investment, advice or platform business with hands-on ownership of first-line controls.

Strong working knowledge of COBS 9A suitability requirements, Consumer Duty (PRIN 2A) and the three-lines-of-defence model in practice.

People leadership experience - managing senior specialist managers and building a small team; setting standards and holding both domains to them.

Track record of producing risk MI that genuinely informs decisions with concise, decision-ready reporting for senior management and committees.

Direct experience of advice-side control including file review, suitability monitoring, QA programme design or T&C and of outsourcing or supplier oversight in a regulated context, including familiarity with SYSC 8 expectations.

Experience of digital services and of controls over automated systems.

Experience of intra-group service arrangements and the discipline of overseeing a group entity as rigorously as a third party.

Level 4 Diploma in Regulated Financial Planning or an equivalent qualification.

Experience supporting an FCA authorisation, a new regulated service launch, or pre-launch assurance work.

Experience of TPRM frameworks and third-party lifecycle management (onboarding, in-life oversight, exit).
