About this role Your team The Investment Accounting Group provides accounting and regulatory data services to financial institutions. The team delivers reconciliation, asset tracking and accounting, monthly reporting packages, and regulatory schedules. Working across a broad range of products and accounting requirements, the team helps clients meet their financial reporting and regulatory obligations while maintaining effective production processes and controls. Your role and impact As a Vice President in the Investment Accounting Group, you will provide leadership and subject-matter expertise across operational risk, controls and governance, maintaining an end-to-end view of the control environment across Investment Accounting and its service partners. You will partner with senior leaders to identify emerging risks, strengthen governance and accountability, lead audit and risk activities, and drive sustainable remediation and control improvements as our business, technology and operating model evolve. Your responsibilities In every role at BlackRock, you'll be expected to apply sound judgement and critical thinking to solve complex problems, adapt as the business evolves, and combine the curiosity to explore new approaches and technologies with the rigor to challenge the results. The scope of this role also includes the following responsibilities: Maintain an end-to-end view of operational risk and the control environment across Investment Accounting and its service partners, challenging whether material risks are appropriately identified, owned, controlled and escalated. Act as a senior subject-matter expert and coordination point across operational risk, controls, governance and issue management, establishing consistent standards and clear accountability across the organization. Lead and enhance governance, escalation, monitoring and management-information frameworks that provide senior leadership with clear visibility into emerging risks, control health, significant issues and remediation progress. Identify and challenge control, process and documentation weaknesses, partnering with accountable owners to drive root-cause analysis and sustainable remediation rather than tactical fixes. Lead key risk and control activities, including RCSA, access governance and recertification, business continuity planning, and periodic control assessments. Lead coordination of Internal Audit, regulatory and other independent reviews, including readiness, evidence coordination, management responses, observation challenge and timely remediation of findings. Provide risk and control leadership for significant business and technology change, including client migrations, operating-model changes, automation and the adoption of AI and other emerging technologies. Partner across Investment Accounting, Product, Engineering, Data, Client and Risk teams to ensure new processes and capabilities are introduced with appropriate controls, ownership, monitoring and operational resilience. Analyze incidents, control failures and recurring operational issues to identify broader trends and systemic risks and drive preventive actions across the organization. Lead the Investment Accounting Risk and Control Self-Assessment (RCSA) and Business Continuity Planning (BCP), partnering with functional leaders to identify material and emerging risks, evaluate controls, document management assessments and drive remediation. Provide risk and governance oversight for AI, automation and other emerging technology use cases, partnering with business and technology owners to ensure appropriate controls, human oversight, monitoring and accountability are established as solutions move into production. Your experience Six or more years of relevant experience in financial services, investment accounting, operations, operational risk, controls, audit or a related discipline. Strong understanding of operational-risk and control frameworks, including risk identification, RCSA, control design and assessment, issue management, root-cause analysis and remediation. Experience leading or materially supporting Internal Audit, regulatory reviews, risk assessments, control testing, SOC/SOX or comparable control-focused engagements. Working knowledge of investment accounting, financial reporting, asset servicing or another complex, highly controlled financial-services operating environment strongly preferred. Demonstrated ability to identify emerging or systemic risks and translate them into practical, scalable control and governance improvements. Strong judgment and ability to challenge constructively, particularly where ownership, controls or remediation plans are unclear. Ability to influence senior leaders and cross-functional stakeholders without relying on direct authority. Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to translate complex risk and control issues into concise management-level reporting. Demonstrated ability to lead multiple complex initiatives simultaneously across global and matrixed teams. Experience with technology-enabled operating-model change, automation or AI governance is desirable.
