Senior Manager Behavioural Scientist
Macquarie’s Risk Culture team assists its businesses in determining the soundness of risk culture and driving strong risk outcomes throughout Macquarie Group Limited. It is a part of the Behavioural Risk division of Macquarie’s Risk Management Group (RMG).
The team undertakes independent risk culture reviews and utilises strong data analytics capabilities, to identify the relative strengths and areas for development within a business or function. These findings and accompanying actionable recommendations are shared with senior management. This role is particularly focused on collaboration with local teams to utilise risk culture insights to drive sustainable, sound risk culture behaviours.
Risk culture is an exciting area to work in, with growing global recognition that strong risk cultures are fundamental to the long-term success of financial services organisations. The collaborative team consists of members with varied backgrounds and welcomes diverse perspectives. As such, we value hearing how you could apply your previous work experience to further enhance how our team operates. The role will at times require overseas travel (in line with governments’ health guidance) due to Macquarie global business operations.
As a Senior Manager within the Risk Culture team, you will have opportunities to apply your strong understanding of behavioural science in a practical setting, acting in an advisory capacity to Macquarie businesses to drive improved risk outcomes. You will be pivotal in;
- Utilising insights to identify underlying behavioural root causes and their role in the management of risk,
- Designing and facilitating the implementation of custom behavioural-led initiatives,
- Applying professional judgement and conscientious management of a range of stakeholders including leadership, while collaborating on sensitive topics,
- Thriving in a project environment, overseeing the completion of multiple deliverables within defined timeframes
- Clearly presenting complex topics in an insightful and engaging way, and
- Critically measuring behavioural change outcomes to understand the success of your initiatives
You will also be expected to support continuous improvement initiatives to drive greater efficiency and effectiveness across the team and the wider Risk Management Group division.
Other responsibilities may include:
- Supporting the design and execution of risk culture deep dive reviews as needed and as relevant to your work
- Designing surveys and focus groups, including customised questions, and running interviews and focus groups to a high standard, responding to important information as it arises
- Critically considering the information sources needed to deliver your objectives, analysing a range of data sources (quantitative and qualitative) to draw deep insights, applying attention to detail in analysis and clarity of communication
- Managing small project teams to drive the completion of deliverables
- Conducting applied behavioural science knowledge sharing and/or training to continually strengthen the way Macquarie manages risk
To be successful in this role you will have relevant education and experience, including at least three years post-graduate experience in human behaviour (e.g., psychology, behavioural science) and/or business and finance (e.g. legal, audit, risk management, human resources, management consulting). You will also have a minimum of one year experience in people management at a manager level.
