About this Opportunity

You’ll assist in the execution of risk reviews, help develop assurance controls, and support cross-functional collaboration to strengthen AI governance frameworks, and also be responsible for:

• Supporting oversight reviews on AI systems, helping identify risks and evaluate control effectiveness across lifecycle stages.

• Assisting in monitoring AI system usage and flagging governance gaps or critical issues.

• Contributing to the documentation and communication of AI risk issues to internal stakeholders.

• Tracking AI-related regulatory updates and supporting impact assessments.

• Helping align AI oversight activities with model governance and technology risk processes.

What skills and experience can you bring to the role?

• Good communication skills with the ability to engage cross-functional teams and summarise technical risk findings clearly.

• Exposure to risk or governance frameworks applied in AI or technology domains.

• Familiarity with second-line risk functions or oversight roles supporting assurance, governance, or regulatory alignment.

And any experience of these would be a plus:

• Familiarity with security risk concepts: data leakage, timely injection, adversarial threats.

• Knowledge of global AI regulations and compliance trends (e.g. EU AI Act, GDPR).

• Exposure to AI tooling or monitoring platforms (e.g. Vertex AI, LLMOps, model tracing tools).

• Exposure to ethical AI topics such as fairness, accountability, and IP risk.

As well as a competitive salary (dependent upon experience) you’ll receive:

• An annual performance-related bonus

• Generous pension contribution (of up to 15%)

• A flex benefits cash pot you can adjust to suit your lifestyle (4% on top of your basic salary)
