Operational Risk Business Partner

2 weeks ago


Surrey, South East England, United Kingdom NATIONAL TRUST Full time

We have an Operational Risk Business Partner position available in the London & South East Region. You'll work mostly within your home and London & South East Region. It’s really important to us at the National trust to manage our risks across all places and as such we are looking for an Operational Risk Business Partner to join us on a permanent basis.

You’ll hold a full UK driving license and be willing to travel within your Region. This may occasionally involve overnight stays as and when required.

Salary: circa £46,000 depending on skills and experience.

What it's like to work here

We’re bigger than you think, we’re more complicated than we appear and we’re larger scale than you’d imagine. We’ve got passionate people in all our teams, and we’ve got so much more we want to achieve. We’re for ever, for everyone and we really mean that. We want everyone to feel welcome and enjoy access to our places, so we need to reach new audiences in ways that are meaningful and relevant to them without losing the hearts and minds of those that are already with us.

As this role covers the London & South East region, your contractual place of work will be the nearest National Trust consultancy office to your home. Our hybrid working policy means you can balance office and home working with site visits and meetings at other National Trust places. We’ll talk about this in more detail at interview, but you should expect to be at a National Trust site for 40–60% of your working week.

What you'll be doing

Reporting to the Senior Operational Risk Business Partner, you'll be closely supported by the national specialists within Operational Risk, acting as the expert in providing general advice to a portfolio of properties in your Region.

Your day could be anything from dealing with regulators, helping develop internal policy or advising on complex property related projects across a varied geographical area, with everything from Mansion Houses, villages, farms, castles, monuments and acres of woods, coast and open countryside.

You’ll need to be adept at flexing your style and taking a pragmatic and imaginative approach to achieve compliance.

Who we're looking for

You can view the full role profile for this role in the document attached. You don't need to have all the knowledge, skills and experience listed in the role profile; this is just to provide a full picture of what is possible in this role, we’d love to hear from you if you have:

  • A relevant qualification in Health and Safety (e.g. member of IOSH or CIEH)
  • Strong technical expertise in Health and Safety and Risk Management.
  • Comprehensive knowledge of the relevant legislative frameworks.
  • Experience of providing expert advice to a range of stakeholders
  • Practical and pragmatic: you should be able to demonstrate great influencing skills as well as the ability to build strong relationships – both internally and externally.

The package

The National Trust has the motto ‘For everyone, for ever’ at its heart. We’re working hard to create an inclusive culture, where everyone feels they belong. It’s important that our people reflect and represent the diversity of the communities and audiences we serve. We welcome and value difference, so when we say we’re for everyone, we want everyone to be welcome in our teams too.
