Job Description

Kia ora, Talofa lava, Kia Orana, Malo e lelei, Fakalofa lahi atu, Bula Vinaka and Namaste!


At ASB, we’re all about helping our customers get One Step Ahead by giving them the tools they need to manage their lives, businesses, and futures securely.


At the heart of our modernisation journey lies a bold vision: Building a simpler, modern bank enabling ASB to deliver customer value faster in an increasingly changing world. We’re seeking a Line 1 Technology Risk Manager to join our Modernisation Division. This role provides a unique opportunity to gain an enterprise-wide perspective of ASB, by assisting the division to manage the risks of one of New Zealand largest technology transformation programmes.

While technology risk management experience would be beneficial, it is not a prerequisite . We are particularly interested in hearing from risk and compliance professionals with experience in complex business processes, technology or transformation programmes, coupled with excellent stakeholder management, and a proactive attitude.


This is a collaborative, fast-paced environment where your expertise, judgement, and communication skills will be valued as you work with both internal stakeholders and external partners to uplift our risk culture and resilience.


If you're passionate about tech, transformation, and helping organisations move fast and safely, this could be your next big move.


Mo te tūranga | About the role


As a Technology Risk Manager, you will:


  • Coach, train, and support the Modernisation Division and Delivery Practice in identifying and managing risks and compliance activity, both for day-to-day activities and for programme initiatives.
  • Lead Change Management Risk Standard (CMRS) initiatives, ensuring alignment to the ASB Delivery Framework (ADF), providing a forward-looking view of controls and risk reviews required for execution.
  • Proactively engage ASB Centres of Excellence (CoEs), Line 2, and Line 3 representatives to ensure initiative risk and compliance requirements are met, and controls are complaint by design.
  • Support the Modernisation Division in managing internal and external assurance activity.
  • Develop, manage, and continuously improve the Modernisation Risk Profile.
  • Monitor risk exposure through delivery and implementation of key milestones, surfacing material trends or themes.
  • Provide pragmatic risk solutions incorporating ASB values and risk appetite, allowing the programme to safely test and learn to create new and innovative solutions.
  • Develop and manage parts of our team backlogs, sprint planning, and success measures.
  • Contribute towards Modernisation's involvement in new compliance and risk initiatives.


Ngā mea kia whai angitū ahau? | What do I need to be successful?


  • Strong risk and compliance understanding, preferably with a technology or delivery context.
  • Strong organisational and time management skills.
  • Demonstrated ability to work independently and autonomously.
  • Innovative, pragmatic, and self-motivated approach.
  • Strong negotiation and consensus-building skills, with the ability to build relationships across functional lines.
  • Critical thinking and sound problem-solving skills, with the ability to identify issues and develop risk mitigation strategies.
  • Credible customer relationships both within the immediate team and across multiple customer groups.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to translate complex information and deliver compelling presentations.
