Purpose driven, well funded and strategically important organisation.
What if this role was more than just producing reports?
What if the information you produced actually shaped how a growing organisation understands its risks and makes decisions?
What if you were given the opportunity to build something meaningful? Not simply maintain reporting, but develop insight that helps leaders see patterns, trends, and emerging risks before they become problems?
And what if you owned that space? Leading how reporting and assurance evolve inside a respected organisation that is expanding and building its second line capability properly from the start?
If that sounds like the kind of challenge that excites you, we should talk…..
Your Role
This role sits within the Second Line of Defence and carries genuine ownership. You will lead the organisation’s approach to reporting and assurance across a defined portfolio. The role is split broadly across two important areas.
Over time the role will also support the development of compliance monitoring as the organisation continues to mature its control environment.
This is not simply a reporting role. It is about creating insight, spotting patterns, and helping leadership understand what their information is really telling them. The organisation is at an early stage in how it uses data and analytics. For the right person, this presents an opportunity to help develop more sophisticated reporting, trend analysis, and visualisation capability over time.
What you will be doing
Are You the Right Fit
This role suits someone who enjoys turning information into understanding.
This opportunity would likely suit someone currently working as a Risk Manager, Internal Audit Manager, Assurance Manager, or Compliance Manager, particularly within financial services or other regulated or complex environments.
Why This Role Is Worth Exploring
You will join a respected and growing organisation with a clear sense of purpose and a leadership team that values thoughtful oversight. You will own a meaningful portfolio and have the opportunity to shape how reporting and assurance develop over time. For the right person, this is a chance to build something influential rather than simply maintain what already exists.
If that sounds like the kind of role you have been looking for, apply now!
