• Collaborate with global stakeholders across Australia, New York and London to support consistent program outcomes.

What You'll Need

• Financial Services experience is essential.
• Experience within Risk Management, Compliance or related control functions.
• Experience working within Line 1 and/or Line 2 Risk environments.

• Strong analytical, problem-solving and critical thinking capability.
• Experience working with Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) systems, ideally Archer or similar platforms.
