General Function

Fifth Third Bank Leadership Programs (LPs) are designed to provide meaningful work experience and develop future organizational leaders. The Risk Leadership Program (RLP) consists of comprehensive on-the-job training supplemented by educational opportunities focused on banking, business, risk management, leadership and professional skills. The RLP is designed to enhance the career progression and performance of its participants through: exposure to a variety of risk management disciplines, mentor relationships with senior leaders, formal and informal performance feedback, leadership and team building opportunities and community service.

The full-time leadership program is located in Cincinnati and structured in four rotations over a 24-month period. RLP rotation assignments are based on business need, skillset and interest and may include opportunities in Operational Risk, Compliance, Credit Risk, Market Risk, or other areas within the Risk division. The RLP offers two well-defined tracks to prepare participants for careers in Risk Management, with an emphasis on either Governance & Oversight or Data Analytics based on the participants program focus. During the program, participants rotate among different teams, becoming an integral member of each one so they can fully collaborate on key initiatives.

Risk Leadership Program Participants (RLPs) are responsible and accountable for risk by openly exchanging ideas and opinions, elevating concerns, and personally following policies and procedures as defined. They are accountable for always doing the right thing for customers and colleagues, and ensure that actions and behaviors drive a positive customer experience. While operating within the Banks risk appetite, RLPs achieve results by consistently identifying, assessing, managing, monitoring, and reporting risks of all types.
