Position Summary:

As a Director of Risk Management, this role leads the Company’s enterprise risk and insurance programs and serves as the primary point of accountability for how risk is identified, managed, and transferred across the organization. 

This role is responsible for overseeing all risk management programs and initiatives, managing and negotiating the Company’s insurance programs (excluding employee benefits), and serving as the primary face of TPS in the insurance marketplace. The Director of Risk Management will work closely with Finance, Operations, Safety, Legal, and external advisors to ensure risk is managed thoughtfully, proactively, and cost-effectively. The Director of Risk Management will report to the Chief Financial Officer. 

The role is designed for a seasoned risk professional who combines strong technical risk and insurance knowledge with sound judgment, practical leadership skills, and a collaborative mindset. While the role requires strategic thinking, it is also hands‑on and execution oriented, particularly as the Company continues to mature and formalize its risk management processes. 

Key Responsibilities:

Enterprise Risk Management & Governance 

• Oversee the Company’s enterprise risk management activities, including identification, prioritization, monitoring, and mitigation of key operational, safety, insurance, regulatory, and reputational risks. 
• Serve as a core contributor to the Company’s Risk Management Committee, providing data driven insights, risk trend analysis, and escalation of material issues. 
• Develop and maintain risk reporting, dashboards, and key risk indicators to support senior management and Board‑level oversight. 
• Help embed risk awareness and accountability into day-to-day decision‑making across the organization. 

Insurance Program Management 

• Own the design, placement, and ongoing management of the Company’s insurance programs across all lines of coverage. 
• Work closely with the Safety team and Operations leadership to support the development and execution of a strong, data driven safety program. 
• Analyze incident and near miss data to identify trends and systemic risks. 
• Partner with Operations and Safety on training initiatives, operational controls, and tools designed to reduce risk companywide. 
• Serve as a key point of coordination following significant incidents, even where direct management responsibility resides elsewhere.  
• Partner with the Legal and Compliance team on claims and litigation strategies 

Process Improvement & Market Engagement 

• Continue to mature and formalize risk management processes, governance, and documentation, building structure where needed. 
• Evaluate and leverage risk management and claims systems and tools (system‑agnostic) to improve visibility, analytics, and decision-making. 
• Actively represent TPS in the insurance market, reinforcing the Company’s commitment to disciplined risk management, safety, and continuous improvement. 

Knowledge, Skills & Experience Required:

• Bachelor’s Degree required, preferably in Finance, Business Administration, Economics, or Risk Management  
• Professional certifications preferred (e.g., ARM, CPCU, CRM).  
• 8+ years of relevant experience in a corporate risk environment overseeing enterprise insurance programs and working directly with brokers, carriers, TPAs, and outside counsel   
• Demonstrated ability to operate across functions, influence without direct authority, and balance strategic thinking with practical execution. 
• 15-20% travel may be required
