  • Work with the first line business owners to ensure findings from audits and monitoring and testing are remediated efficiently and effectively

  • Provide regulatory training and self-help materials to assist first line teams to comply with regulatory obligations and compliance policies

  • Responsibility: You have a sense of urgency and an ability to work well under pressure, prioritising, taking responsibility and accountability for your work.

  • Communication: You have strong written and verbal communication skills. You are able to deliver complex regulatory analysis and advice verbally and in writing. You are also able to understand advice, analysis and regulatory risk assessments produced by others and provide constructive feedback and objective challenge.

  • Leadership and mentoring: You have experience managing or mentoring other employees and enabling them to develop their knowledge and skills.
