We have an incredible opportunity to join us here at Phoenix Group as a Internal Controls Consultant to join our Risk Management and Regulatory Governance function in Pensions & Savings.
Who are we?
We want to be the best place that any of our 6,600 colleagues have ever worked.
We're the UK's largest long-term savings and retirement business. We offer a range of products across our market-leading brands, Standard Life, SunLife, Phoenix Life and ReAssure. Around 1 in 5 people in the UK has a pension with us. We're a FTSE 100 organisation that is tackling key issues such as transitioning our portfolio to net zero by 2050, and we're not done yet.
The role
You will be part of the Control Testing team that is within Pensions & Savings Risk Management and Regulatory Governance function. The control testing team's scope currently covers the internal control environment across Pensions & Savings, supporting Line 1 to mature and improve their key controls and provide Group Risk Policy Sponsors with robust oversight of control operation.
You will be focussing on the assessment, testing, and challenge of the Group's internal control environment, responsible for applying the Group Control Testing Standards, and the wider Internal Risk and Control Framework, by undertaking a program of control testing. You will apply existing expertise to assess the adequacy of control design and effectiveness of control operation in a consistent, accurate and transparent manner, being responsible for identifying the outcomes and management actions from control testing.
You will express risk management and internal control concepts in a straightforward way, to be understood by both wider Line 1 stakeholders and senior leadership when there are different levels of understanding.
What we're looking for
* Knowledge of expert level control design and operation, with the professional competency to assess associated operational risks
* Analytically minded with a high attention to detail and accuracy combined with an organisational skillset that allows for task prioritisation and time-management
* Strong communication skills, including appropriate influencing and stakeholder engagement, with the ability to communicate in a straight-forward and unambiguous manner
* Ideally have a background in Audit, Compliance or Governance and Risk Management, including experience of varied assurance approaches for testing controls
We want to hire the whole version of you.
We are committed to ensuring that everyone feels accepted and welcome applicants from all backgrounds. If your experience looks different from what we've advertised and you believe that you can bring value to the role, we'd love to hear from you.
If you require any adjustments to the recruitment process, please let us know so we can help you to be at your best.
We're reviewing applications as they come in, so apply early to avoid missing out.
