• strong knowledge of Australian financial services law and relevant ASIC, APRA, BCCC, RBA and ACCC requirements
• the ability to provide constructive challenge, exercise sound judgement and develop practical solutions that support strong customer and compliance outcomes
• strong stakeholder management, negotiation and influencing skills, with the confidence to work autonomously in a busy environment
• excellent written communication skills and the ability to translate complex requirements into clear, concise materials
