What will you be doing?

  • Strong stakeholder management and influencing skills

  • Confidence working alongside leaders and subject matter experts

Financial Services experience would be highlyadvantageous; however,we’realso keen to hear from individuals within other highly regulated sectors, as experience navigating regulatory frameworks andoperatingin a regulated environment is a key requirement for this role.

This is a chance to join a collaborative People team where ideas are welcomed, improvement is encouraged, and Learning & Development playsan important rolein supporting the wider business.

You’llwork alongside an experienced and highly regarded senior L&D leader, gaining exposure to a broad range of learning, capability and organisational development projects whilst helping shape the future of the organisation during a period ofsignificant change.
