• Assess and manage risk holistically, across operations, technology, and change, using sound judgement and analysis.
• Support strong control environments, including assurance activities within evolving or technology‑enabled processes.
• Navigate emerging risk areas, such as AI and automated decisioning, with curiosity, care, and a focus on responsible use.
• Build trusted relationships by communicating clearly, working collaboratively, and influencing with integrity.
