You'll help shape discussions at committees and governance forums by preparing clear, concise briefings on key financial risk topics.

You'll also play a key role in regulatory engagement, coordinating responses to regulatory requests and producing high-quality materials for discussions with the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA).
