Within the Risk Management Directorate of VidaCaixa, the Non-Financial Risks function incorporates Operational Risk management with the objective of strengthening the company's resilience against internal errors, operational incidents, emerging risks, and external events that may affect the business.

The purpose of this discipline is to comprehensively manage operational risk, covering its identification, assessment, measurement, monitoring, mitigation, and reporting. Likewise, it contributes to driving a preventive culture and a risk vision integrated into the company's processes, products, and strategic projects.

In this context, the function addresses, among others, the following areas:

• Operational losses and root cause analysis.
• Operational risk associated with business processes.
• Risks in products and new developments.
• Risks derived from strategic projects and corporate transformations.
• Key Risk Indicators (KRIs), RAF metrics, and risk appetite monitoring.
• Preventive actions and continuous process improvement.
• Emerging risks and sector trends.
• Operational resilience and coordination with the rest of the non-financial risk disciplines.

We are addressing both professionals with experience in risk management and profiles from operational areas of the insurance business who wish to evolve towards a transversal function with a global vision of the organization.

We especially value knowledge of insurance processes, analytical capacity, and an orientation toward continuous improvement.

Among their main functions and responsibilities are:
