Make Your Impact in Risk & Assurance

We’re strengthening our Internal Controls & Risk team and we’re looking for a Senior Risk & Assurance Partner to help shape how we protect our people, assets, and reputation.

This isn’t box-ticking. It’s a hands-on, high-impact role where you’ll be trusted to deliver assurance reviews, sharpen risk frameworks, and influence senior leaders across every part of our business manufacturing, warehousing & logistics, retail, and head office.

You’ll join a close-knit team of three, reporting directly into the Head of Internal Controls & Risk. Together, you’ll drive a proactive risk culture and continuous improvement agenda that really adds value.

What You’ll Be Doing

*

Leading and delivering risk-based assurance reviews across the business.

*

Developing and embedding control and risk management frameworks.

*

Supporting business continuity and crisis management planning.

*

Providing oversight of compliance and insurance frameworks.

*

Acting as a senior point of expertise within the team, guiding and mentoring colleagues.

*

Partnering with senior leaders to build ownership of risk and assurance.

*

Presenting findings and insights with a solutions-focused approach.

What We’re Looking For

*

Solid experience in risk management, internal audit, or assurance (retail or multi-site preferred).

*

A track record of delivering independent assurance reviews and improving controls.

*

Broader compliance and insurance knowledge would be a plus.

*

Strong communication and stakeholder management skills at senior level.

*

Adaptable, resilient, and confident working in a fast-paced, changing environment.

*

Professional qualification (CMIIA, CIA, ACA, ACCA or equivalent) preferred.

Why Join Us?

*

A salary with flexibility in how you work — 2 days at HQ, plus site visits and home working.

*

A role with visibility and influence, working directly with senior leaders.

*

The chance to be part of a growing, collaborative team making a real difference.
