YOUR MISSION:

Lead the Function That Protects, Strengthens and Enables Business Success. Some roles manage risk. Others shape the future of an organisation by ensuring it can grow with confidence. This is one of those roles.

Why This Role Matters

This is far more than a traditional compliance position. You'll have the prospect to influence strategy, partner with leaders at all levels and build frameworks that support smarter decision‑making across the organisation. From enterprise risk management and governance reporting to workplace safety and internal controls, you'll play a critical role in helping the business operate with confidence in an increasingly complex environment. If you're someone who enjoys solving complex challenges, partnering with stakeholders and creating meaningful business impact, this role offers the platform to do exactly that.

What You'll Be Responsible For

You'll lead and evolve the organisation's risk and compliance capability while ensuring strong governance, safety and control frameworks are embedded throughout the business.

Enterprise Risk Management

You’ll establish, enhance and manage a robust risk management framework that enables the organisation to identify, assess and mitigate operational, strategic, financial and reputational risks. You’ll partner with leaders to develop action plans, improve processes and provide expert guidance on risk-related matters.





Compliance & Regulatory Excellence

You’ll ensure the business maintains the highest standards of legal, ethical and regulatory compliance. This includes developing and maintaining policies, driving compliance initiatives, monitoring legislative changes and fostering a culture built on accountability and responsible business practices.

Health, Safety & Wellbeing

You’ll champion workplace safety by supporting the delivery of safety transformation programs, ensuring compliance with legislative obligations and partnering with stakeholders to proactively manage risk.

Internal Controls & Governance

You’ll strengthen internal controls across the organisation, conduct reviews and audits, identify opportunities for improvement and collaborate with stakeholders to ensure effective governance practices are maintained.

Reporting, Insights & Leadership

You’ll deliver meaningful reporting and risk insights to senior leadership, supporting informed decision‑making and continuous improvement across the organisation.

Loss Prevention

Working closely with operational stakeholders, you’ll support strategies that reduce inventory shrinkage, prevent theft and fraud, protect company assets and strengthen risk management practices across the business.

YOUR TALENT:

What Success Looks Like





This role will suit someone who can see both the big picture and the finer details. You'll be recognised as a trusted business partner who can:

- Build strong relationships across diverse stakeholder groups
- Influence and advise senior leaders with confidence
- Translate regulatory and operational requirements into practical business solutions
- Drive continuous improvement and accountability
- Enhance organisational capability through education, coaching and support
- Create a proactive culture of compliance, safety and risk awareness

What You'll Bring

We're seeking a commercially minded risk and compliance professional who combines technical expertise with outstanding stakeholder management skills. You will likely bring:

- Proven experience within Risk, Compliance, Audit, Governance or Internal Controls
- Strong knowledge of regulatory and compliance frameworks
- Experience developing and implementing enterprise risk programs
- Workplace Health & Safety experience
- Exceptional analytical and problem‑solving capabilities
- The ability to influence and engage stakeholders at all levels
- Strong communication, reporting and presentation skills
- A continuous improvement mindset with a practical, hands‑on approach

Experience within retail, consumer goods, manufacturing, logistics or similarly complex operational environments will be highly regarded.
