Context and Purpose<\/h4>\n

Whole-of-society governance cannot be credible if membership standing is ambiguous or selectively enforced. Contribution rules\u2014fees, waivers, service credits, in-kind caps, sponsorship constraints\u2014must be applied consistently, audited, and insulated from influence. Otherwise, governance becomes vulnerable to \u201cpay-to-participate\u201d narratives, donor dominance, and capture.<\/p>\n

The Global Risks Forum (GRF) stewards standards, recognition, due process, and legitimacy across diverse constituencies. To preserve independence, GRF operates Member-in-Good-Standing (MGS) discipline and contribution integrity controls consistent with the Nexus financial separation doctrine: governance revenues and membership contributions are segregated from any execution capital flows; contributions must not purchase recognition outcomes.<\/p>\n

The Treasury & Compliance Lead is accountable for membership standing controls and contribution integrity: ensuring contribution rules are clear, auditable, fairly administered, and enforced through predictable cure and delinquency pathways\u2014without linking finances to recognition decisions or creating inequitable access.<\/p>\n

This is governance\u2014not execution. The role does not manage investment products, allocate program capital, offer financial advice, or imply preferential access. It stewards governance-only contribution integrity.<\/p>\n

Key Responsibilities<\/h4>\n
    \n
  • Operate Member-in-Good-Standing (MGS) financial standing discipline: invoicing posture, receipting, payment tracking, and clear standing status for participants and seats.<\/li>\n
  • Maintain contribution rules and integrity controls: fee schedules, waiver criteria, service credit rules, in-kind valuation and caps, sponsorship acceptance criteria, and concentration limits.<\/li>\n
  • Ensure contributions are firewall-safe: no linkage to recognition outcomes, enforcement actions, dispute results, or access to privileged deliberations beyond role-based handling rules.<\/li>\n
  • Administer delinquency and cure pathways: fair notices, time-bound cure windows, documented outcomes, and appeal routing where applicable.<\/li>\n
  • Maintain ring-fencing of governance funds: separate accounts, transparent reporting, and auditable trails for all governance-only revenues and expenses.<\/li>\n
  • Produce quarterly financial standing dashboards (public-safe + restricted): standing rates, delinquency trends, concentration metrics, and waiver\/service-credit distribution.<\/li>\n
  • Coordinate with Membership Lead to ensure onboarding, renewals, and re-seating follow consistent financial standing rules without favoritism.<\/li>\n
  • Coordinate with COI\/Ethics to ensure sponsor\/funder acceptance does not create capture or bloc dominance; enforce concentration and influence caps.<\/li>\n
  • Coordinate with Secretariat and Records\/Register to ensure standing-related determinations (suspensions, reinstatements) are record-valid and properly notified.<\/li>\n
  • Maintain audit-readiness: policies, evidence of application, approvals, and exception handling are documented and consistent.<\/li>\n
  • Ensure public communications about contributions are accurate and bounded: membership is participation and governance support, not endorsement or regulatory approval.<\/li>\n
  • Support fundraising or sponsorship acceptance governance (where applicable) strictly within neutrality rules and influence caps.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Compensation, Remuneration, and Expenses<\/h4>\n
      \n
    • Governance authority is not paid.<\/strong> Compensation is never linked to recognition outcomes, dispute results, enforcement actions, standards outcomes, market outcomes, or influence.<\/li>\n
    • Operational workload may be compensated (where permitted).<\/strong> If build-year operational work is required (standing administration, reporting, audit packs), any compensation must be scoped, deliverable-based, independently approved, auditable, and never linked to recognition outcomes or enforcement decisions.<\/li>\n
    • Expenses may be reimbursed<\/strong> where documented, pre-approved, and policy-compliant.<\/li>\n
    • Continued service depends on remaining in good standing and meeting disclosure and integrity obligations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Opportunities for Leaders to Join<\/h4>\n
        \n
      • Build the contribution integrity spine that preserves independence and prevents \u201cpay-to-influence\u201d dynamics.<\/li>\n
      • Make membership standing fair, auditable, and predictable\u2014strengthening legitimacy across constituencies.<\/li>\n
      • Design waiver and service-credit mechanisms that expand inclusion without compromising governance integrity.<\/li>\n
      • Strong performance positions leaders for senior stewardship roles and board consideration (without implying entitlement).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            Eligibility, Membership, and Independence<\/h4>\n
              \n
            • Holds a primary role outside the officer seat (unless otherwise permitted) and can sustain the expected cadence.<\/li>\n
            • Willing to fully disclose relevant interests and comply with conflict-of-interest and recusal requirements.<\/li>\n
            • Not placed in a situation where service creates unmanageable conflicts or compromises neutrality.<\/li>\n
            • Accepts confidentiality, handling discipline, and communications integrity expectations.<\/li>\n
            • Commits to remain in good standing (participation, disclosures, and applicable contribution obligations).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1029373,"template":"","meta":{"_promoted":"","_job_location":"","_application":"public@therisk.global","_filled":0,"_featured":1,"_remote_position":0,"_job_salary":"","_job_salary_currency":"","_job_salary_unit":"","_hours":"","_rate_min":"","_rate_max":"","_salary_min":"","_salary_max":"","_apply_link":"","_job_cover_image":"","_company_manager_id":"1029369"},"job-categories":[167],"job-types":[253],"job_listing_tag":[],"job_listing_career_level":[245,98],"job_listing_experience":[33],"job_listing_qualification":[43,45,58,85],"class_list":{"0":"post-1029758","1":"job_listing","2":"type-job_listing","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","5":"hentry","6":"job_listing_category-governance","7":"job_listing_type-leadership","8":"job_listing_career_level-leader","9":"job_listing_career_level-senior","10":"job_listing_experience-10-years","11":"job_listing_qualification-associate-degree","12":"job_listing_qualification-bachelor-degree","13":"job_listing_qualification-doctorate-degree","14":"job_listing_qualification-master-degree","16":"job-type-leadership","17":"job_position_featured"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/therisk.global\/work\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job-listings\/1029758","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/therisk.global\/work\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job-listings"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/therisk.global\/work\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/job_listing"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/therisk.global\/work\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/therisk.global\/work\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job-listings\/1029758\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/therisk.global\/work\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1029373"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/therisk.global\/work\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1029758"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"job_listing_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/therisk.global\/work\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job-categories?post=1029758"},{"taxonomy":"job_listing_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/therisk.global\/work\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job-types?post=1029758"},{"taxonomy":"job_listing_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/therisk.global\/work\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_listing_tag?post=1029758"},{"taxonomy":"job_listing_career_level","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/therisk.global\/work\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_listing_career_level?post=1029758"},{"taxonomy":"job_listing_experience","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/therisk.global\/work\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_listing_experience?post=1029758"},{"taxonomy":"job_listing_qualification","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/therisk.global\/work\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/job_listing_qualification?post=1029758"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
