Operating within the Second Line of Defence in the Risk Function, the team's responsibilities cover both Financial and Strategic risk categories. The team provides oversight and challenge to ensure financial health, minimise losses, and promote sustainable growth.

Additionally, you’ll support management in interacting across the business, building relationships with stakeholders across Treasury, Risk, and Finance.
