Own the Group’s Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery framework, including crisis management and scenario testing
Oversee risk and control frameworks (including risk registers, risk and control matrices and key risk indicators) and ensure consistency across the Group.
Support decision‑making by ensuring major initiatives align with agreed risk appetite and risks are identified and mitigated early.
Provide independent second‑line oversight and constructive challenge to first‑line risk owners
Oversee significant incidents, control failures and risk events, ensuring lessons learned are embedded
Build risk capability and a strong risk‑aware culture across the organisation
Act as the Group’s Speak Out (whistleblowing) Officer

Proven ability to influence, challenge and build trust at senior levels
Demonstrable experience of leading and developing teams
A pragmatic, proportionate approach balanced with strong professional judgement and independence
