    Description

    About the Role

    We're seeking a proactive, motivated individual to join us as Operations Assistant. In this role, you'll work closely with central functions of the Life & Health Risk Management (L&H RM) team, primarily supporting Insurance Risk Reviews and also the Departmental Operations Office team and the Executive Assistant to the Chief Risk Officer.

    Main activities and responsibilities:

  • Administration and planning of the Insurance Risk Review process, including managing timelines and logistics.
  • Support the budget planning and cost management of the department, including people planning and vacancy management.
  • Contribute towards the governance process, ensuring that the KPIs of the L&H RM department are met.
  • Handle calendar management, including scheduling of internal/external appointments across time zones and arranging all required logistics (rooms, video conferences, catering, accommodation, etc).

Our department consists of almost 500 risk management and valuation colleagues who cover a multifaceted scope of activities. Risk Management helps ensure Swiss Re's profitability and sustainable growth over time so that we can honour our promises. We help the business not only steer away from risks that could destabilise us, but we also identify risks worth taking.

    About You
