An exciting opportunity has arisen to join the Conduct, Compliance & Operational Risk Team as the Personal Assistant (PA) for two Directors covering Customer & Product and Commercial & Markets Risk (CCOR).

The PA is the first point of contact for the team, providing secretarial and administrative support across varied tasks, whilst developing and maintaining strong relationships.

This role involves a high level of prioritisation, diary, and inbox management, as well as collaborating across a wide network. You will need to work with a range of senior stakeholders, both internal and external. It is a fast-paced work environment and you should be highly motivated and work well under pressure.

• Ensure record keeping of the office is kept to a high standard and is in line with the Executive Handbook, Group policies and standards
• Gather and provide information on a wide range of topics, including material for various committees
• Identify, monitor and mitigate risks, escalating where appropriate and undertake project work as required
• Use initiative to prioritise workflow during absence, manage diaries to achieve optimum time effectiveness and arrange travel.

• Ability to work under pressure, meet deadlines and present information clearly and concisely
• High attention to detail, with discretion, reliability and an understanding of confidentiality requirements.

We know that great talent comes from many backgrounds. We recognise that skills are developed in many ways, so if you have relevant, transferable experience, we encourage you to apply.

Our ambition is to be the leading UK business for diversity, equity and inclusion supporting our customers, colleagues and communities and we’re committed to creating an environment in which everyone can thrive, learn and develop.
