• Leading on key risk assessment activity, with a compliance lens, such as Process Level Assessments and Risk & Control Self Assessments. You will provide challenge on compliance risk and mitigating control suites

• Conducting regulatory reviews on key pieces of regulation such as GDPR and Consumer Duty to ensure that compliance risk is regularly reassessed and that business partners fully understand their obligations and how to effectively control for the risk.

• Supporting the First Line in the development of strong controls in order to strengthen the effectiveness of the compliance control environment

• Partnering with key stakeholders in the UK Legal department to support the team and the wider business in interpreting and understanding the compliance obligations the UK business faces

• Building and maintaining collaborative relationships with business stakeholders in order to influence decisions and aid them in understanding their compliance risks

What we’re looking for

• A skilled risk professional with broad compliance knowledge and experience working within financial or related services

• Experience of leading or undertaking risk and control assessments and providing effective assurance and challenge to a wide range of stakeholders across different business functions

• A curious and collaborative influencer that seeks to understand and has passion for the business objectives and partners with the business to achieve them

• A problem solver that can identify and recommend solutions to improve our control suites, mitigation activities and operational processes

• An ability to build trusted relationships with stakeholders across the business

• Effective at managing competing priorities, with a strong focus on delivering results in conjunction with considering the needs of the team

• You already hold or are interested in working towards a relevant ICA or IRM qualification (e.g. ICA Certificate in Compliance or IRM Certificate in Risk Management)

We are committed to creating a level playing field and seek to create teams that are representative of our customers and the communities we serve.
