  • Identifying issues or improvements and advising Senior Management through high quality, impactful reports
  • Overseeing the execution of Management actions to address assurance findings, validating their effectiveness
    

  What you’ll bring:

  • Proven experience in an Assurance, Compliance Monitoring or Internal Audit role providing assurance over financial crime risk management within a banking environment
  • Experience leading reviews as part of the wider financial crime plan, providing timely assurance opinions including over the Financial Crime Risk Management Systems and Controls, both at a framework and individual control level
