Risk And Control Officer

Are you motivated by working at the intersection of regulation, data, and governance – and want to support how a large bank handles recorded communications responsibly and compliantly?
We are looking for a Senior Risk & Controls Officer to support the Recorded Communications area within Business Controls and Product Management (BCPM). In this role, you will work closely with recorded communications specialists and contribute to ensuring that voice and written communications across the Danske Bank Group are governed, controlled, and documented in line with regulatory and data protection requirements.

Recorded Communications is the business owner of large volumes of recorded voice and written communications across the Group. The team defines and maintains the governance framework based on input from Legal, Compliance, and Data Protection Office, acts as a gatekeeper for solutions and processes, and ensures that relevant business procedures and documentation are up to date.
You will collaborate with colleagues across BCPM and engage with a broad range of stakeholders in the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Line of Defence, as well as IT, HR, and Front Office.

This role could be located in Warsaw, Poland or Vilnius, Lithuania. The role does not include the relocation package. Danske Bank supports workplace flexibility (we currently use a hybrid work model, where at least 3 days a week we work in the office).

• Identifying opportunities to improve existing processes, controls, and documentation within recorded communications.

About you:

• Are comfortable working with Excel, including large data sets and structured analysis.
• Have an interest in regulatory topics such as GDPR and record keeping requirements, or are motivated to learn.
• Communicate clearly and professionally in English, both written and spoken. Knowledge of a Scandinavian language is an advantage.
• Enjoy stakeholder engagement and working closely with colleagues across functions, countries, and levels of seniority across the Group.
• Thrive in a diverse and collaborative team environment and value different perspectives and ways of working.
• Are service minded, analytical, and able to explain complex topics to different stakeholders.

It is considered an advantage if you have:
