• Conduct thorough compliance investigations into potential breaches of the Code of Conduct, internal policies, and regulatory requirements.
• Gather and analyse evidence, including documentation, interviews, and digital records, to establish facts and assess risk.
• Collaborate with internal stakeholders such as regional and cluster compliance and operational teams to ensure investigations are handled professionally and confidentially.
