What is the Risk Delivery Team? 

The Risk Delivery Team is not your typical Oliver Wyman team. For a start, we focus on implementation rather than strategy. And we have big ambitions to change the way people think about implementation consulting.  

But, itâs not just what we do that makes us different; itâs how we do it. You can bring your whole self to this team. Weâre all about authenticity, development, and fun â yes, fun. Our culture is what sets us apart and itâs going to help us realize our goal of creating a team of implementation superheroes.  

Some more detail: weâre a relatively new team â formed in 2023 in Amsterdam, Milan and Newcastle. And we do meaningful work that makes a real difference to clients. We optimize credit-risk models and processes to solve complex problems for leading banks and financial institutions. Here are some examples of the type of work we do: 

Developing a new Advanced Internal Rating-Based Approach (AIRB) credit risk model for the Mortgages portfolio of a G-SIB 

Leading the end-to-end implementation of a new credit decisioning process  

Orchestrating complex regulatory programs in the area of credit risk (e.g. IFRS9)
