A Head of Risk who also runs a career coaching consultancy? That’s quite a unique mix of skills, and Simon Cooper offers some valuable career coaching advice specifically geared toward the risk community (although personally I’d suggest it’s really valuable advice for anyone).

Whether you’re already a CRO, or looking to progress your career, Simon offers many points to think about.

Have you been risk averse with your career moves? Should you be more bold?

Have you recently taken a step back and thought about where your future lies?

All too often I, as a recruiter, engage with people when they are actively looking for a new role and feel that some of the questions asked by Simon will help you proactively develop the direction of your career.
