About the position:
The Vice President, Non-Financial Risk Officer is a second-line role within Americas Non-Financial Risk and serves as the designated NFR Officer for Financial Markets, Capital Markets, Lending, Capital Markets & Advisory (CMA), and Sectors. The role provides independent oversight, credible challenge, and advice across the non-financial risk profile of these business domains, supporting management in meeting applicable ING Group requirements and U.S. regulatory expectations. The role challenges the quality and completeness of risk assessments, issues, events, KRIs, control monitoring, and risk reporting, and evaluates whether material risks are appropriately identified, assessed, managed, monitored, reported, and escalated. The successful candidate will combine strong business understanding with sound risk judgment and senior stakeholder influence, without assuming First Line ownership or execution responsibilities.
About the department:
The Non-Financial Risk function operates as the second line of defense, providing independent oversight, challenge, and advice to support effective First Line risk management. Within Americas NFR, this role acts as the primary second-line counterpart for the assigned Wholesale Banking business domains and works with local, Group, and hub stakeholders to promote consistent application of ING requirements and alignment with applicable U.S. regulatory expectations.

- Review and challenge issues and risk events, including classification, risk rating, root-cause analysis, impact assessment, remediation plans, target dates, closure evidence, lessons learned, escalation, and identification of recurring or cross-business themes.
- Oversee the KRI lifecycle for the assigned domains by challenging indicator selection, calibration, thresholds, data quality, breach rationales, root causes, management actions, forward-looking trends, and alignment with risk appetite.
- Lead risk-based Second Line Monitoring over Key Control Testing and other relevant First Line control-monitoring activities, documenting scope, challenge, conclusions, findings, escalation, and follow-up in line with the applicable monitoring approach.
- Provide integrated and decision-useful NFR reporting for the assigned domains, connecting risk assessments, control effectiveness, KRIs, issues, events, emerging risks, and remediation progress; escalate material concerns through the appropriate governance forums.
- Coordinate with First Line business and control partners, NFR subject-matter experts, Compliance, Legal, Finance, Technology, Audit, Group NFR, and hubs to support consistent risk practices, local regulatory readiness, thematic reviews, examinations, and sustainable remediation.

- Bachelor’s degree in risk management, business, finance, economics, law, or a related field; advanced degree or relevant risk certification preferred.
- 5+ years of relevant experience in non-financial risk, operational risk, business risk management, audit, consulting, or a related financial-services discipline, including meaningful second-line or independent oversight experience.
- Strong understanding of Wholesale Banking activities and the related operational and regulatory risk environment, with experience supporting one or more of Financial Markets, Capital Markets, Lending, CMA, or sector-based businesses.
- Deep practical knowledge of risk assessments and RCSAs, issue and event management, KRIs and risk appetite, control monitoring and testing, risk reporting, governance, and escalation.
- Demonstrated ability to provide credible challenge, form defensible risk conclusions, identify cross-cutting themes, and translate complex risk information into clear advice for senior business and risk stakeholders.
- Knowledge or willingness to learn of U.S. banking and capital-markets regulatory expectations relevant to non-financial risk management, together with the ability to interpret and apply global frameworks in a local context.

What Employers Look For
The qualifications that appear most often in financial risk analyst jobs.
- Bachelor's degree in finance, economics, mathematics, or a related quantitative field
- Proficiency in statistical or programming tools such as Python, R, SAS, or SQL
- Experience with credit risk, market risk, or operational risk assessment
- Knowledge of regulatory frameworks including Basel III, CCAR, or Dodd-Frank
- Financial Risk Manager (FRM) or CFA designation, or active candidacy
- Strong written communication skills for presenting risk findings to senior stakeholders
Tips for Your Financial Risk Analyst Job Search
Tailor your resume to risk frameworks
Hiring managers for financial risk analyst roles scan for specific frameworks like Basel III, CCAR, or IFRS 9. Name the exact frameworks you have worked with and pair each one with a measurable outcome, not just a duty description.
Highlight your quantitative modeling tools
Financial risk analyst job listings routinely filter on Python, R, SAS, or SQL. If your resume lists only generic 'data analysis,' you will be screened out before a human reads it, so name the tools and what you built with them.
Target postings by risk discipline, not just title
Credit risk, market risk, and operational risk teams hire separately and want different skills. Search by the specific discipline that matches your background so you apply to openings where your experience maps directly to the job description.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists financial risk analyst openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Prepare a scenario answer on stress testing
Interviewers at banks and insurance firms almost always ask how you have approached stress testing or scenario analysis. Prepare one concrete example that walks through your methodology, the data inputs you used, and what the output drove in terms of a business decision.
Negotiate by anchoring to certification value
If you hold an FRM or CFA, use it as an anchor when negotiating. These credentials signal completed continuing education and exam rigor that the employer does not have to fund, which is a concrete cost argument separate from your experience level.
Financial Risk Analyst Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most financial risk analysts?
The most active employers for financial risk analysts right now are EY, Uber, and PwC, and the most openings are in New York, California, and Texas, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Demand is concentrated at large financial institutions, insurance carriers, and corporate treasury functions across major financial centers.
How many financial risk analyst jobs are remote?
About 86% of financial risk analyst openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, with availability depending heavily on seniority and employer type. Quantitative modeling and reporting roles tend to offer more remote flexibility, while positions tied to trading desks or regulatory exam preparation more often require on-site presence.
How do you become a financial risk analyst?
Start with a bachelor's degree in finance, economics, mathematics, or statistics, then build hands-on skills in data analysis tools such as Python or SQL through coursework or project work. Earning the Financial Risk Manager designation from the Global Association of Risk Professionals signals specialized competency to employers. Entry-level roles in credit analysis, audit, or compliance are common starting points before moving into dedicated risk analyst positions.
Can you get a financial risk analyst job with little experience?
Yes, entry-level financial risk analyst roles exist, particularly at regional banks, insurance companies, and consulting firms that hire recent graduates into rotational or analyst development programs. Demonstrating proficiency in quantitative tools and completing the first level of a risk or investment credential can offset limited work history. Internships in audit, credit underwriting, or financial reporting are the most direct bridge to a first role.
What does the financial risk analyst interview process look like?
Most employers run a phone or video screen focused on your technical background and familiarity with risk frameworks, followed by a case study or take-home exercise that tests your ability to analyze a dataset and communicate findings. Final-round interviews typically include a panel with the risk team and a cross-functional stakeholder, covering both technical depth and your ability to explain risk concepts to non-specialists.
Where can I find and apply to financial risk analyst jobs?
You can find and apply to financial risk analyst jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States in one place. Search the listings to find roles that match your background and apply directly to each one that fits.
