Interim Assistant Director of Governance

Interim Assistant Director of Governance

  • Location: West London, London
  • Salary: Up to £82k per annum per year

An exciting 12-month fixed-term opportunity has arisen for an experienced governance professional to take on a senior leadership role within a complex public sector organisation in West London (hybrid 1-2 days a week). As Assistant Director - Governance, you'll provide oversight and assurance across governance, risk, compliance, and audit functions, working closely with senior leaders, boards, and auditors.

A key focus of the role is developing and embedding a robust governance framework that will leave a lasting legacy, ensuring statutory compliance and driving a culture of accountability and transparency throughout the organisation. This role also includes managing and mentoring a small team, strengthening capability, and ensuring governance supports effective decision-making across all levels of the organisation.

We're looking for someone with proven experience in governance, audit, or risk at a senior level, ideally within the public sector. Strong knowledge of statutory responsibilities, excellent communication skills, and the ability to present complex issues with clarity are essential. This is a fantastic chance to make a tangible impact, leading with professionalism and integrity while delivering real improvements in governance and assurance that will endure beyond the tenure of the role.

Committed to inclusiveness in the workplace, we aim to increase diversity across all areas and therefore welcome applications from all qualified candidates, regardless of their ethnicity, race, gender, religious beliefs, sexual orientation, age, or whether or not they have a disability. Let's help build a better world, together
