We’re looking for a Head of Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) to lead and further develop IMC’s global ERM function. This is a leadership role with broad exposure across IMC’s business, combining strategic stakeholder management with hands‑on engagement in a fast‑paced, collaborative environment. IMC’s risk framework covers the following categories: strategic, financial, operational, compliance, and information security risks. This framework is shaped by global functional leads and dedicated regional risk teams. The ERM team, operating at Group level, works closely with these regional and global teams to deliver a consistent, proactive view of IMC’s risk appetite, risk profile, and control environment. The ERM team currently consists of 3 FTEs. The role reports directly to the Chief Risk Officer (CRO) and is based in Amsterdam, with occasional travel to our offices in Chicago, Sydney, and other locations.

ERM serves as an overarching, integrative layer to set standards for groupwide risk management processes that encompass all risk categories. The main focus areas are the annual Risk Control Self-Assessments (RCSA), the Key Control Framework (KCF), risk surveys, and risk culture assessments. The team also supports aggregated risk reporting and contributes to risk-related projects that strengthen IMC’s overall risk governance.

As IMC continues to grow, the role of ERM is increasingly important and you will hence join our growing team in Amsterdam with a lot of opportunities.

• Lead, develop and mentor the global ERM team
• Foster close collaboration and alignment with global functional leads and regional risk teams to ensure consistent implementation of the ERM concepts, sharing of best practices, and proactive risk management across all locations
• Strengthening the Risk Control Self-Assessment process to ensure proactive and consistent identification, evaluation and mitigation of key risks
• Advance the Key Control Framework by enhancing the monitoring, testing and assurance of critical firm‑wide controls
• Lead enterprise‑wide initiatives related to Risk Appetite, Risk Culture and Risk Surveys, promoting a strong and forward‑looking risk mindset across IMC
• Build technical capability within the ERM function (e.g., IT/InfoSec control expertise, data analytics)
• Provide thought leadership and counsel to the CRO and senior management on enterprise and emerging risks
• Deliver clear, insightful analyses and risk reports to senior stakeholders

• 10+ years of relevant experience in risk management, internal controls, business analysis, risk advisory or audit
• Proven ability to design, implement and improve risk assessment and control processes using best practices, tools and methodologies
• Strategic yet hands‑on mindset, combining analytical thinking with practical execution and problem‑solving skills
• Experience leading cross‑functional projects and managing competing priorities in fast‑paced environments
• Strong stakeholder management and relationship‑building skills, with the ability to influence and engage credibly at all levels of the organization
• Demonstrated people leadership capabilities, with a track record of building high‑performing teams and developing talent.
• Academic background in a quantitative, analytical or business discipline (e.g. Finance, Economics, Engineering or similar)
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English
