You will work closely with security, compliance, risk, legal, audit and operational teams to assess control effectiveness and promote continuous improvement.
Key responsibilities include managing evidence collection for internal and external audits, coordinating responses to customer and regulatory assessments, and preparing clear, accurate reports for senior stakeholders.
