- Contributing and building reports for executive and Board level committees; and
- working with colleagues in Risk and Compliance Oversight, Risk Advisory and the wider organisation to ensure the RMF and supporting infrastructure are appropriated communicated, understood and embedded in day to day business processes.
The individual will work on a varied set of tasks and deliverables in the team. This includes having the opportunity to lead on important projects shaping the second line view and shaping the organisational approach to risk management.
You will have a pivotal role and numerous opportunities where you’ll be empowered to shape the approach and outcomes of risk management initiatives.
