• Influence stakeholders across the business to build alignment and support proposition recommendations.
• Collaborate with cross functional teams to improve end-to-end product journeys and ensure propositions deliver strong customer and commercial outcomes.
• Identify and manage risks, ensuring governance expectations are met and decisions reflect customer, business, and regulatory needs.

About you

• Confident written and verbal communicator with stakeholder management skills, ability to build strong partnerships and explain complex ideas clearly. 
• A curious and open mind, with an interest in data and problem solving.
• Able to work independently, take ownership of problems and bring insight and creativity to problem‑solving.
• High attention to detail and strong analytical skills to support decisions, documentation and technical accuracy.
