How you will make a difference
As part of our Group level ORM team, you’ll influence risk maturity across Triodos Bank both at Head Office and Business Unit Level (Belgium, the Netherlands, Spain).
What truly distinguishes this role is that, alongside your standard ORM responsibilities, you will be specifically tasked with spearheading AI innovation within ORM.
You will:
- Be a dedicated ORM partner to the business.
- Challenge and support 1st line risk activities with fresh, forward-looking insights.
- Act as a bridge between risk, data, IT, and business teams to turn AI opportunities into responsible, impactful practice.
- Take ownership of shaping Triodos’ AI risk roadmap, from exploring possibilities to recommending solutions and guiding implementation.
- Identify practical, ethical AI applications that strengthen risk insights, efficiency, and resilience.
What you will bring
We are not simply looking for experience, we are looking for mindset, energy, and innovation.
This role is ideal for someone who is eager to learn, experiment, connect dots, and bring a future oriented perspective to risk management.
You will:
- Bring fresh, proactive thinking and take initiative without waiting to be asked.
- Deliver high-quality results with focus and adaptability.
- Communicate clearly and build trust across teams and countries.
- Embrace a learning mindset and challenge assumptions constructively.
- Be curious about how our business works and how technology can elevate it.
- Combine a strong risk mindset with creativity and solution oriented thinking.
Additionally, you have:
- Experience in Operational Risk Management (banking preferred).
- A keen interest in AI, Data Management, and emerging technologies — whether through formal experience or strong ambition to grow fast.
- Analytical skills and digital affinity.
- Strong English communication skills and the ability to work in a multicultural context.
- Integrity, openness, and a collaborative work style.
Your future colleagues
You will join a diverse, international ORM team that values transparency, experimentation, and continuous improvement.
Together with ORM IT and risk partners across the Group, you will help shape how AI responsibly enhances the way we manage non‑financial risk.
