Lead/support risk governance forums for the Corporate Pension Solutions business, ensuring clear, forward‑looking risk profiles are presented and discussed. Proactively identify and assess emerging risks impacting the business through change assessments, process reviews and issue root‑cause analysis. Manage or contribute to thematic reviews covering risk, controls or policy adherence. Oversee the RCSA process, supporting senior leaders to deliver high‑quality, timely submissions that reflect the true risk profile of the team. Work collaboratively across the three lines of defence, including Compliance, Audit and Group Risk, to maintain a strong and proportionate control environment.
