See yourself in our team:
Technology is responsible for the world leading application of technology across every aspect of CommBank, from innovative product platforms for our customers to essential tools within our business.
The Chief Controls Officer (CCO) is responsible for ensuring that the business effectively manages non-financial risks, is aligned with fair outcomes for customers and, in particular, responds to changing Board and regulatory expectations.
Do work that matters:
Technology CCO (TCCO)’s purpose is to ensure our technologists have the capabilities to effectively manage non-financial risks and provide secure and always available technology products and services to our customers.
The TCCO Controls Assurance team works closely with control stewards, SMEs, engineers, and product owners to assure the effectiveness of technology controls through evidence, data, and stakeholder engagement. The team is leading the way in automating controls testing—moving from manual to automated, data-driven processes. This is in parallel to ensuring the current control environment is being effectively managed, risks (current and emerging) are transparent and have robust treatment plans, and enable the delivery of key strategic objectives through simple and proactive risk advice and assessment.
Key responsibilities for this role include:
- Lead and execute the strategic approach to assure data controls (load assurance, data validation, data quality etc) across technology
- Coach and mentor team members with deep technical and regulatory expertise to set new benchmarks in controls assurance.
- Shift controls assurance from manual to automated, ensuring alignment with business and regulatory expectations.
- Proactively challenge legacy practices, driving the adoption of innovative, automated, and data-driven assurance solutions.
- Strengthen expertise across a broad range of control types such as IT General Controls, business process controls, data controls and new AI/Agentic controls, ensuring best-in-class risk management.
- Collaborate across Technology and the Group to embed a culture of continuous improvement, risk awareness, and customer focus.
- Role model the CBA way, fostering a high-performance, inclusive, and learning-oriented team culture.
We’re interested in hearing from people who have:
- Deep knowledge across data risk and data controls (load assurance, data validation, data quality etc).
- Demonstrated performance in controls assurance within complex, highly regulated environments and collaboration with cross-functional teams.
- Proven ability with hands-on experience to transform, challenge the status quo, and deliver innovative solutions for risk and control activities including application of AI/agentic.
- Strong stakeholder management and influencing skills at all levels.
Risk, product and tooling knowledge across cyber security, technology and AI/agentic as well as CISM, CISA, CRISC, CGEIT, CDPSE, COBIT, ITIL, CISSP or other IT risk related certifications (e.g. ISO200x, PCI/DSS) and AI related certifications is favourable
