The Civil Digital Risk & Compliance Partner reports to the Head of Cyber Security Risk and Compliance (Civil Aerospace) and serves as the link between the Civil business and the Digital & IT function. The role supports articulation of business impact from IT risks, ensuring those risks are incorporated into decision‑making, and provides leadership to enhance organisational resilience. It applies structured analytical thinking and quantitative techniques to model, quantify and communicate risk, bridging Engineering, Digital and Commercial domains across complex project portfolios, joint ventures and supplier ecosystems.
Key responsibilities include coordinating risk management across the Civil IT function, monitoring IT disruption within appetite, and providing direction to ensure IT risk is suitably addressed within Civil Aerospace. The partner manages risk and compliance reporting and escalation across the cyber security, IT risk and compliance landscape, promotes the ‘Minimum Viable Company’ programme, and enables the Joint Venture & Supplier Management assessment programme in partnership with Digital & IT colleagues. Close collaboration with business partners is required to deliver outcomes, applying analytical and quantitative methods to generate data‑driven insights.
The role requires broad knowledge of Rolls‑Royce risk management principles, tools and techniques, and a solid understanding of Civil business strategies and plans. Candidates must understand external and internal standards, maintain a pragmatic approach to compliance, and be able to translate complex risk and compliance data into clear, actionable insights for both technical and non‑technical audiences. Experience with designing or using digital solutions such as Power Apps or the Power Platform to manage and present complex data sets is essential.
Rolls‑Royce offers a safety‑first environment where doing the right thing and keeping it simple are core principles, alongside a culture that values making a real difference through your work. The role supports mid‑career professionals to blend technical expertise with strong personal qualities, encouraging integrity, accountability, resilience and curiosity. Employees collaborate in a team‑focused setting while also having the independence to take initiative, lead and make confident decisions, benefitting from continuous learning, openness to improvement and exposure to challenging opportunities.
