Work with the existing IT Controls project teams and IT stakeholders to perform deep dive assessments, plan remediation activities and drive IT Control development through to completion, including routine testing over design and operation of controls.
Work with existing transformation projects, to ensure that projects do not introduce avoidable operational risk, track remediation and act as SME throughout the journey.
Assist and lead where required in the creation of new or revised policy and standards for IT and ensure the relevant local knowledge and support is provided as needed.
Support Control Owners and Operators through 1-2-1 training or group sessions, creating training packs as needed.

Help continue to build the IT Risk Framework, utilising best practice methodology.
Drive an effective risk & control culture across EG Group, promoting accountability, responsibility, and action, acting as a risk & control ambassador to ensure best practices are shared and actions delivered.
