Your Opportunity

At Schwab, you're empowered to make an impact on your career. Here, innovative thought meets creative problem solving, helping us challenge the status quo and transform the finance industry together. We believe in the importance of in-office collaboration and fully intend for the selected candidate for this role to work on site in the specified location(s).

The Financial Risk Program Management (FRPM) team within Corporate Risk Management provides independent second-line oversight across key financial risk programs, strengthening governance, policies, standards, and controls to align with regulatory and enterprise expectations. As part of the broader Financial Risk Management organization, this team plays a critical role in enabling informed, transparent, and effective financial risk decision-making.

In this Director role, you will operate as a strategic integrator across governance, audit, and cross-functional risk initiatives, driving the evolution of financial risk frameworks and oversight capabilities. You will influence how financial risk is assessed, monitored, and governed by leading initiatives that enhance regulatory alignment, strengthen control environments, and improve the consistency and effectiveness of risk programs across credit, market, liquidity, and capital risk domains.

This role requires strong judgment and the ability to navigate complex, enterprise-wide challenges-coordinating regulatory gap assessments, supporting enterprise audit readiness, and guiding end-to-end due diligence efforts for new initiatives. You will play a key role in facilitating senior governance forums, ensuring effective decision-making through clear communication, synthesis of complex risk topics, and alignment across stakeholders. Success in this role depends on your ability to collaborate across first- and second-line partners, influence outcomes without direct authority, and drive execution across multiple priorities while maintaining a focus on risk mitigation and program effectiveness.
