AI Governance and Risk Professional

Your role

You will help organizations navigate the intersection of AI, cybersecurity, data privacy, and compliance.

As main responsibilities in this role, you will:

Design and assess AI governance models and risk management frameworks that align AI initiatives with business strategy and regulatory expectations, such as the EU AI Act
Identify and evaluate AI specific risks including security, model integrity, data quality, and third-party dependencies leading to recommending practical mitigation strategies
Build control frameworks and operating models that keep AI systems trustworthy, transparent, resilient and secure
Advise clients on AI and data regulations, ethical principles, and industry standards, helping them stay ahead of compliance requirements
Contribute to broader cybersecurity and data privacy initiatives where your expertise adds value —because strong AI governance doesn't exist in isolation from an organization's overall security and privacy posture

You won't work alone: you will collaborate with our global and local teams — a mix of technologists, legal experts, and business strategists who bring depth across the full spectrum of AI governance challenges to support you
