Operational Risk Specialist Product

Ready to Get Shit Done?

As building a global bank that people love to use, our users naturally have high expectations of their banking experience. This is why introducing new features or changes behind the scenes need to happen smoothly. Therefore we’ve developed the Product Approval and Review Process (PARP).

This is where you come in!

Take Ownership

As Operational Risk Specialist Product at bunq, you’ll own the PARP to help Product Owners identify and mitigate issues in time for launch by:

• Continuously improving the PARP in the Product Process.

• Supporting and challenging Product Owners during their completion of the PARP questionnaire to identify potential risks and ensuring Product Owners apply necessary mitigations for any risks exceeding bunq’s Risk Appetite.

• Ensuring the PARP process is governed by formal procedures with clearly defined roles and responsibilities. Coordinate with the 2nd line (Risk & Compliance) to provide an independent risk assessment.

This challenge is perfect for you if

• You have a good grasp of how a financial services business operates, including knowledge of deposits, payments, investments, and other financial products.

• You understand the regulatory environment in which banks operate and are knowledgeable about key guidelines such as those from the EBA (e.g., CRD, PSD2).

• You are passionate about technology and understand the basic workings of web applications, including backend, frontend, APIs, and third-party integrations.

• You are an excellent communicator in English
