A passion for continuous improvement to help drive efficiencies & promote effective ways of working, including the use of agile testing tools.
Curiosity to understand and, where appropriate, challenge the existing end-to-end controls to mitigate financial / prudential / regulatory / operational risk.
Provide insightful information and guidance to Stakeholders to help mitigate risk and improve the control environment.
Strong team collaboration skills, drive to develop yourself and contribute towards team outputs / development.
