• Produce decision-useful dashboards/MI and leadership updates; promote a strong risk and control culture and drive automation/simplification to reduce manual dependency.

To be successful you will:

• Experience supporting audits and control testing, including producing audit-ready documentation and evidence packs.
• Familiarity with access management, segregation of duties, maker-checker controls, and monitoring/alerting controls in operational environments.
• Strong analytical skills to interpret trends, identify root causes, and prioritize remediation based on risk and impact.
