This is an excellent opportunity to take on a broad global compliance leadership role within a tangible, commercially focused business. The company already has a strong compliance programme in place, but there is real scope for the successful candidate to shape, improve and lead the function in a practical and risk-based way.

- Governance, reporting and senior stakeholder engagement
- Supporting a practical, proportionate and risk-based compliance culture
This is a broad, visible and business-facing role with real influence. It would suit someone who enjoys operating close to the business, working with senior stakeholders and taking ownership in a lean but genuinely global environment.
