- This is a brand-new leadership role within Customer Operations, and will be the most senior Line 1 risk role at . You'll report to the Chief Customer Operations Officer and own the design of a function that doesn't exist today.
- As we've grown, Line 1 risk and compliance activity has ended up spread across Operations and Compliance.

It will cover Financial Crime (fraud, scams, AML/KYC and investigations), Adviser Governance, External Dispute Resolution, and Line 1 Risk & Compliance.
- You'll design and implement controls, make sure they work across teams, and help business leaders own and manage their own risks, without taking those risks over. You'll work closely with independent Line 2 Risk & Compliance and the Office of Trustee, so you'll need to understand where Line 1 ends and Line 2 begins.

You also understand how customer service, contact centre and administration teams work, because that's where this role lives.
- You're pragmatic. You're comfortable with ambiguity and with agile ways of working, and you'll build something proportionate that suits how operates.
