  • Lead on retail compliance policies and procedures, ensuring they remain up to date, clear and compliant with statutory requirements.
  • Monitor incidents, investigations and emerging trends, making recommendations to the Retail Leadership Team to inform the risk register and decision-making.

  • Collaborate with internal stakeholders across Retail, Property and Knowledge teams to ensure statutory testing, documentation and guidance are in place and accessible.
