GSCOP Advisory: Ensure colleagues receive proficient support and guidance on queries pertaining to the Groceries Supply Code of Practice (GSCOP).
Investigations Management: Provide substantive support for any investigative requirements arising from internal issues or external complaints lodged by third parties, such as customers or suppliers.
Reporting and Governance: Assist with the tracking and reporting of compliance information to the Groceries Code Adjudicator, Audit Committee, Risk and Compliance Committee, and other internal governance bodies.
Policy and Process Management: Develop, manage and maintain company policies and operational processes to ensure they meet regulatory standards and business needs.

Who you are:

We are seeking a candidate with the following qualifications, experience, and attributes:

Compliance Expertise: A thorough understanding and practical experience of compliance frameworks and associated key risk areas.
GSCOP Knowledge: Familiarity with the Groceries Supply Code of Practice (GSCOP) is a distinct advantage.
Corporate Experience: Proven experience working within a corporate environment, ideally with exposure to the retail sector.
Stakeholder Engagement: Demonstrated ability to engage effectively with senior management, possessing excellent interpersonal and communication skills.
