• Contributing to operational resilience activities for our UK entity in line with FCA requirements.

• Managing the third-party risk management lifecycle, including due diligence, security questionnaires, risk rating, onboarding gates, and periodic reassessments.

• Maintaining the vendor register and contractual security requirements in collaboration with the Legal team.

• Coordinating internal and external audits, including Big Four ICT audits, regulator requests, and PCI QSA cycles, and managing the audit calendar.

• Owning evidence collection and maintaining an evidence library for reuse across audits, certifications, and client questionnaires.

• Administering and developing our GRC platform, including control monitoring, automated evidence collection, framework mapping, and reporting.

• Applying AI tools to day-to-day GRC activities, including policy drafting, gap analysis, evidence assembly, and questionnaire responses, while helping to automate recurring processes.

• Contributing to our AI governance programme, including the assessment of AI vendors, support of the AI system register, and alignment with emerging regulatory requirements such as the EU AI Act.

• Working knowledge of ISO/IEC 27001; exposure to DORA, GDPR or PCI DSS

• Experience in regulated financial services (payments, e-money, banking, fintech) or advisory work for such companies

• Hands-on experience with audits — coordinating them, preparing evidence, remediating findings

• Familiarity with GRC platforms or a strong interest in compliance automation

• Strong written English — your output goes to auditors, regulators and senior stakeholders

• Ability to manage multiple workstreams against fixed deadlines

• Nice to have

• Certifications such as CISA, CRISC, CISM, CIPP/E or ISO 27001 Lead Auditor / Lead Implementer

• Direct experience with DORA implementation, EBA outsourcing guidelines or FCA operational resilience
