Job Description

[First Name], Enterprise Risk Senior Analyst/AVP (Flexible Level)– Mid Market Investment Bank – Jersey City, NJ – Hybrid

If you're open to exploring something new, this is a compelling opportunity with real growth and learning potential. Our client, a well-established and evolving investment bank, is seeking a Senior Enterprise Risk Analyst to join their Operational Risk team. While this could be an AVP role, the team is open to a high-performing senior analyst who can grow into an AVP within a year.

Impactful position supporting firm-wide risk strategy. You'll collaborate directly with senior leadership, build and refine risk controls (RCSAs, KRIs/KPIs), and help shape policies in a relatively young enterprise risk function. The role combines strong analytical reporting, stakeholder engagement, and a hands-on approach to policy development and risk incidents.

Location: Jersey City, NJ – Hybrid

Reports to: SVP, Operational Risk

Direct Reports: None; highly cross-functional

Compensation: $80K–$120K base for Senior Analyst (higher for AVP) + bonus

Company Size: Mid-sized investment firm

Benefits: Excellent medical, dental, vision; 401(k) with strong match + profit sharing; generous PTO; tuition reimbursement; HSA contribution

Culture: Entrepreneurial, collaborative, and mission-driven

Background – Must-Have Experience:

  • 7+ years in enterprise or operational risk (open to 6+ years if exceptional)
  • RCSA experience required; KRIs/KPIs strongly preferred
  • Advanced Excel: pivot tables, VLOOKUPs, charting (macros a plus)
  • Excellent attention to detail, follow-through, and communication
  • Bachelor’s degree required; Series 7 or GRC (M7) – nice to have
