You will also bring: 

  • A demonstrable track record of designing, implementing and embedding governance and assurance frameworks at organisational level
  • Experience of leading the full internal audit cycle and using assurance activity to strengthen organisational performance
  • Proven ability of leading risk management frameworks and maintaining strategic and operational risk registers 
  • Experience of managing organisation-wide policies and business systems to ensure strong governance and compliance
  • Experience of operating as a Data Protection Officer, with sound knowledge of UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018
  • Demonstrable capability to exercise sound judgement, think strategically and lead through complexity and ambiguity
  • Well-developed organisational skills, capable to manage competing priorities and operate confidently at senior level
  • Please refer to the job description and person specification attached for full details of the role and its requirements.

What you’ll get: 

  • From £66,189 per annum
  • Wellbeing allowance of £300 per annum via a portal (taxable)
  • Discretionary annual bonus
  • 34 days holiday plus bank holidays, option to buy up more, plus birthday leave
