About the Role
Are you passionate about risk management and ready to make a meaningful impact in the financial services sector? BOQ Group is seeking a dedicated and analytical Senior Analyst, Line 1 Risk to join our Wholesale Banking and Financial Markets team.
In this role, you’ll play a key part in strengthening risk management across the Wholesale Banking and Financial Markets business unit. You’ll support the identification, assessment, mitigation, and reporting of risk, while embedding a strong risk culture and ensuring compliance with internal policies and regulatory standards.
You’ll work closely with stakeholders across the 3 lines of defence, our compliance teams, as well as the broader Business Banking division. Your responsibilities will include managing incidents and issues, conducting risk assessments, supporting transformation initiatives, and contributing to the development of risk-related policies and procedures.
This is a fantastic opportunity to be part of a collaborative and forward-thinking team that supports BOQ Group’s transformation journey and commitment to operational excellence.
About you
You’re an enthusiastic and analytical problem solver with a strong background in non-financial risk management—particularly in incident and issue management, risk analysis, and profiling. You bring experience from a similar role within financial services, ideally in Business Banking or Financial Markets.
You’re confident working with complex data, have excellent attention to detail, and can clearly articulate risk insights and solutions. You’re also a natural collaborator, able to build strong relationships across a wide variety of stakeholders and organisational levels.
Qualifications in risk management, law, business, or finance are desirable. Accreditation from the Australian Financial Markets Association (AFMA) and familiarity with FX Global Code will be highly regarded, but not a must-have. Familiarity with key banking legislation and codes—such as AML/CTF, the Corporations Act, BCOP —is however, a must!
At BOQ Group, we value curiosity, energy, and a commitment to continuous improvement. If you’re looking to grow your career in a purpose-driven organisation that values diversity and inclusion, we’d love to hear from you
About Us
BOQ Group is a truly unique group of challenger brands with a purpose – to provide a genuine alternative to Australian financial services for customers and employees.
Our family of brands (Bank of Queensland (BOQ), ME Bank, Virgin Money Australia, BOQ Specialist), each come with their own defined customer audience and brand personality, but share one goal – to build social capital through banking. That’s creating trust with customers, exploring staff potential and believing that tiny gestures and big ideas can change the world for communities.
BOQ Group’s inclusive vision is to foster a workspace that values and leverages difference and creates new possibilities, a place where our people feel confident to bring their best selves to work every day. We embrace difference and believe that our workforce should reflect the customers and communities that we serve.
Since 2021, BOQ Group is recognised as an Employer of Choice for Gender Equality by the Workplace Gender Equality Agency (WGEA).
In 2026, we successfully implemented an innovative Reconciliation Plan, driving positive change and promoting inclusivity across BOQ Group.
