- Support the internal audit programme by coordinating audit arrangements, conducting assigned routine or preliminary audits and accurately recording evidence and findings.
- Monitor corrective actions arising from audits and other compliance activities, following up with action owners and escalating significant or overdue issues where appropriate.
- Coordinate compliance-related training, maintain accurate training records and follow up outstanding requirements with employees and departments.
- Deliver training on established compliance processes and systems when appropriately trained and authorised, and provide employees with practical guidance on established requirements.
- Build constructive relationships across operational and support teams, communicating compliance requirements clearly and helping ensure they are applied without creating unnecessary barriers to operations.
- Identify recurring issues and opportunities to improve compliance processes, documentation, systems and training, supporting the implementation of approved improvements.
What We’re Looking For:
- Strong organisational and administrative skills, with the ability to maintain accurate records and manage several activities simultaneously.
- Excellent attention to detail and a methodical approach to documentation, data and record keeping.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to prepare clear reports and present compliance information accurately.
- Excellent interpersonal skills, with the confidence to build constructive working relationships with employees across different departments and levels of the organisation.
- The ability to follow up outstanding actions and challenge non-compliance professionally, constructively and proportionately.
- The ability to interpret documented procedures, standards and process requirements and identify discrepancies, risks or potential areas of non-compliance.
- Confidence using standard office software, spreadsheets and electronic record or workflow systems.
- The ability to work independently within established procedures while recognising when an issue requires management guidance or escalation.
- A willingness to learn organisation-specific processes, technical requirements and relevant compliance standards.
- Willingness and ability to undertake compliance activities, assessments and training during production night-shift operations when required.
