• Work closely with accountable persons to support FAR alignment, reasonable‑steps evidence and decision documentation
• Coordinate delivery across Legal, Risk, Operations, Technology, Claims and Group stakeholders
• Prepare clear, decision‑focused reporting for Executive Management, Board Committees and the Board

This role is a 15-month max-term/secondment opportunity.
