You’ll take ownership of developing and embedding a clear, practical and engaging compliance framework across a global, multi-functional organisation. This isn’t just about setting policies — it’s about helping colleagues understand what’s required, why it matters, and how to apply it in their day-to-day roles.
It’s a great opportunity for someone who enjoys combining technical compliance expertise with business engagement, and who wants to shape how governance and ethical standards are delivered across a growing industrial group.

- Develop and maintain the Group compliance framework, ensuring alignment with all applicable laws, regulations and internal policies
- Monitor regulatory developments and assess their impact on Group policies and practices
- Coordinate the development, review and governance of Group policies and delegated authorities, including drafting and updating policies in line with new legislation
- Manage and maintain the Group Risk Register, ensuring risks are clearly identified, controlled and mitigated
- Provide clear, structured reporting and assurance to the Executive Team and Board
- Promote a strong culture of integrity and ethical conduct, including oversight of whistleblowing arrangements
- Lead GDPR compliance across the Group, including data protection practices, risk assessments and data subject rights
- Act as a key point of contact for data privacy matters, supporting the business with practical guidance
- Work with internal and external stakeholders including auditors, advisors and regulators as required
- Partner with policy owners, subject matter experts and Learning & Development to design and deliver compliance training and awareness programmes
- Engage with stakeholders across the business to ensure policies and processes are understood, accessible and effective
- Leverage technology to streamline compliance processes, improve reporting and support more efficient ways of working
- Drive continuous improvement in governance processes and compliance awareness across the Group
- Support the Company Secretary with Group administration, including managing the process of Board appointments and coordinating induction and ongoing training for Board members
