We are seeking a Senior Manager, Enterprise Risk to play a pivotal role in shaping and embedding a proactive risk culture across the organisation. Reporting to the Group Chief Risk Officer, this role sits within the second line of defence and provides a unique opportunity to own and enhance enterprise-wide risk frameworks, including greenfield risk registers, crisis and incident management, and second-line assurance. This is a high-impact role where you will work closely with hospital CEOs, clinical leaders, and cross-functional teams to influence risk practices, embed a proactive risk culture, and shape how risks are identified, assessed, and mitigated. The role spans clinical safety, operational risk, governance, and internal audit, offering a broad and senior-level perspective within a leading healthcare organisation.

• Develop, implement, and maintain the Enterprise Risk Management Framework, policies, procedures, and tools.
• Partner with hospitals and corporate teams to identify, assess, and report risks, ensuring alignment with organisational risk appetite.
• Analyse incidents, near misses, and audit data to identify systemic risks and improvement opportunities.
• Act as a trusted advisor, providing credible challenge and guidance to hospital CEOs, clinical leaders, and first-line business owners.
• Monitor emerging risks, industry trends, and regulatory changes to anticipate impacts on the organisation.
• Lead and contribute to incident management, business continuity, and crisis management processes, using insights to strengthen organisational resilience.
• Develop and deliver training programs and workshops to build risk awareness and capability across hospitals and corporate teams.
• Build strong, collaborative relationships across hospitals, corporate teams, and the wider Ramsay network.
