Careers
With over 2 million emerging job opportunities across risk and risk-related roles, the demand for qualified risk intelligent leaders has never been greater. As businesses navigate a complex landscape shaped by global disruptions, technological innovation, regulatory shifts, and sustainability imperatives, organisations are actively seeking talent equipped with enterprise risk management capabilities. Graduates of the Global Programme in Enterprise Risk Management (GPERM) jointly certified by SIBM and IRM are uniquely positioned to pursue diverse career paths across sectors and geographies. From start-ups and family-run enterprises to multinational corporations and consulting firms, risk management skills are becoming central to strategic decision-making and sustainable growth. Risk is also universal - it transcends borders and is not confined by any one country’s legal framework. With globalisation, interconnected supply chains, and shared challenges like climate change and cybersecurity, professionals are needed in every corner of the world to anticipate, respond to, and manage uncertainty.
