drives forward development in the methods and concepts
Hi there Kathryn, I would use something along the lines of "drive/push forward" development. The "zu" here means "with respect to" I am as flummoxed as Melanie by Der Risk Oberser - could it be a misspelling of "Risk Observer"?). So: The Risk Oberser(?) drives forward development in(with regard to) the methods and concepts used for the identification, analysis, control, monitoring and communication of risks. or something along those lines.
