Description

SummaryA career in Enterprise Application Risk will allow you to develop and apply strategies that help clients leverage enterprise technologies so they can get a higher return on their investment, mitigate risks, streamline processes, and find operational inefficiencies.

The work revolves around creative problem solving and applying innovative technologies to enable strategies that increase the value of the applications that run our client's business.

Our focus is on creating effective and efficient design for the most important business, security, and compliance processes for our clients.

Using innovative and proprietary technologies, we help to bridge the gap between business stakeholders, compliance functions, and Information Technology teams to assist in understanding how to embrace new ways of working while limiting their financial and operational risk profile.

We use knowledge of financial system design, risk mitigation, business process design, data integrity, security, and data analytics.
