This role will help maintain the enterprise risk register, coordinate Risk Owner and Risk Liaison updates, support ERM dashboards and reporting, track mitigation actions, and prepare materials for leadership and ERM Steering Committee review. The ERM Program Analyst reports to the Insurance and Risk Manager and will work closely with Risk Owners, Risk Liaisons, business-unit leaders, functional stakeholders, and external ERM advisors.

Relevant experience may include risk management, operations, project coordination, compliance, internal audit, insurance, finance, legal, safety, quality, data analysis, business administration, or process improvement.
