Senior Consultant – AI Assisted Process, Risks and Controls Transformation - Investment Management

This role focuses on applying AI to enhance risk management and control processes within the investment management sector of financial services. It involves identifying, evaluating, and prioritizing risks, designing and implementing AI-enabled governance, and using AI for continuous anomaly detection and process improvement. The role also includes supporting model risk management for AI models.

What you'd actually do

  1. Learn how to identify, evaluate, and prioritize business, operational, regulatory, and technology risks across investment management processes, and apply AI-enabled techniques to improve detection, monitoring, and mitigation of those risks
  2. Support clients in designing and implementing AI-enabled governance across the process, risk and control lifecycle including regulatory and compliance impact assessment, process modeling and risk and control mapping, risk identification, control review, testing and enhancement, and issue management and reporting
  3. Assist with continuous controls monitoring by leveraging AI to perform simultaneous, continuous anomaly detection across transactions, reconciliations, valuations, and other high-volume operational activities to surface discrepancies earlier.
  4. Help deploy AI to enhance process and control effectiveness across the middle/back office processes, including monitoring data flows between systems and data platforms and alerting teams to integration/control issues.
  5. Support the development and operationalization of model risk management (MRM) practices for AI and traditional models across the model lifecycle (development, testing/validation, deployment, monitoring), including clearer roles, accountability, and control environment expectations.
