Role Overview Cboe Global Markets is seeking a Principal GRC Platform Lead to mature the technical roadmap and implementation of Cboe’s GRC (Governance, Risk, and Compliance) platform. This is a hands-on expert role for a major technology domain, advising senior stakeholders across Risk, Compliance, Internal Audit, Third-Party Risk, and other second line functions, guiding platform decisions, and implementing the roadmap, with cross-functional, global reach. The Principal GRC Platform Lead is deeply skilled in hands-on configuring and administering GRC platforms and translating stakeholder requirements and value drivers into intuitive workflows and user experience. In addition to maturing Cboe’s current GRC platform implementation, this role will contribute to evolving Cboe’s GRC capabilities, partner with stakeholders and Cboe’s Technology engineering teams to create data integrations, enhance automation, and leverage AI-driven capabilities. This role reports to the Senior Director, Enterprise Risk Management. Your responsibilities will be: Set, prioritize, and evolve the platform roadmap for Cboe's GRC tool, informed by stakeholder needs and GRC objectives, and informed by market trends. Gather and translate requirements from global stakeholders across Risk, Compliance, Internal Audit, Third-Party Risk, Information Security, and Regulatory, into configured workflows and reporting capabilities. Own the end-to-end user experience of the GRC platform, designing intuitive navigation, forms, dashboards, reporting, and user guides that drive adoption, data quality, and stakeholder satisfaction. Contribute to the expansion of the platform's integration footprint, partnering with Cboe Technology engineering teams to define, scope, and validate connections to source-of-risk systems across Cboe’s infrastructure and third-party/vendor networks so risk data is drawn live rather than manually maintained. ·Monitor industry trends, and the evolving GRC technology market — including integration-centric ecosystems and embedded AI — to keep Cboe's platform strategy positioned ahead of market shifts. Serve as the primary platform authority and escalation point, resolving the most complex configuration, workflow, data, and integration issues, and establishing configuration standards adopted across the platform's global user base. Own platform governance, including data model design, workflow design, access controls, configuration standards, release management, and the vendor relationship with the GRC tool provider and integration partners. Lead due diligence, proof-of-concept work, and build-vs-buy assessments for new platform capabilities. Establish and maintain documentation, configuration standards, and job aids that enable global teams to use and extend the GRC platform consistently. Ensure the platform's reliability, security, and data integrity, partnering with Information Security and Technology on access management, change control, and incident response. The ideal candidate has 8+ years of experience in GRC platform delivery, configuration, and administration, including demonstrated ownership of a GRC platform's roadmap at a regulated financial services firm or market infrastructure provider (e.g., exchange, clearinghouse, broker-dealer, or bank). Experience with a Systemically Important Financial Institution (SIFI) or Systemically Important Financial Market Utility (SIFMU) a plus. Bachelor's degree in Information Systems, Computer Science, Business, or a related field. While this role does not require hands-on development, that technical foundation supports faster, more precise scoping of integrations and more credible technical trade-off conversations with Technology partners. Demonstrated experience translating end-user and stakeholder requirements into intuitive platform workflows, forms, and reporting, with a strong user-experience sensibility for a non-technical, global user base. Working knowledge of data integration concepts (e.g., REST APIs) sufficient to scope, validate, and partner with Technology/engineering teams on connections between the GRC platform and source-of-risk systems; this is a platform ownership role, not a software engineering role, so hands-on development is not required. Strong understanding of risk and control frameworks (e.g., COSO, NIST), RCSA methodology, and the regulatory environment applicable to exchanges, clearinghouses, or other financial market utilities (e.g., SEC, CFTC, UK Op Res, EU DORA, etc.). Demonstrated ability to set platform direction and influence senior stakeholders across global teams, including without direct authority. Experience directing AI-enabled or automation capabilities in a GRC or compliance platform, such as automated evidence collection, continuous control monitoring, or intelligent risk/regulatory mapping, a plus. Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with experience presenting platform strategy and roadmap decisions to senior leadership. Strong project management skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities and stakeholders across time zones. Up to 10-15% international travel and ability to cover late/early hours as necessary for other regions. Relevant certifications (e.g., CRISC, CISA, CISSP, or Onspring/Archer platform certifications) a plus.
