What you'll do

As a Technology Controls Business Partner, you’ll help leaders pinpoint and assess material risks and understand how they stack up against our agreed risk appetites.

• Supporting and regularly engaging with specialist technology stakeholders including second and third lines of defence and functional risk teams

In addition, you’ll need proven experience managing internal audits, third-party IT risk, and the full vendor due-diligence lifecycle. You’ll also draw on your risk assessment and scenario analysis expertise, paired with solid technology risk advisory experience. Your business acumen and ability to communicate and collaborate effectively will help you influence stakeholders at every level.

Alongside this, you’ll demonstrate:
