  • Foster strong working relationships with others and make a valuable contribution to the SMCR Team. This will require working on other SMCR workstreams as required.
  • To act in accordance with the Risk Strategy and Policy, ensuring an appropriate risk register is maintained in the areas for which you have direct responsibility
  • To maintain a culture of audit, quality control and compliance and with advice sought from the SMCR manager and Group Compliance ensure that all aspects of the department’s operations comply with regulations.

  • A great, ‘can do’ attitude to work.
  • Ability to prioritise work and work to deadlines with an eye for detail.
