5. Supporting the First Line in the development of strong controls in order to strengthen the effectiveness of the compliance control environment.
6. 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.

3. A curious and collaborative influencer that seeks to understand and has passion for the business objectives and partners with the business to achieve them.
4. A problem solver that can identify and recommend solutions to improve our control suites, mitigation activities and operational processes.
5. An ability to build trusted relationships with stakeholders across the business.
6. Effective at managing competing priorities, with a strong focus on delivering results in conjunction with considering the needs of the team.
