You will apply your knowledge and judgement to assess product and customer impacts, develop recommendations and support the successful delivery of change.

• Working closely with Proposition, Operations, Digital, Technology and Change colleagues to translate product requirements into practical delivery outcomes.

• Reviewing product and customer information for accuracy, consistency and alignment with product terms, regulatory requirements and agreed customer outcomes.

• Preparing clear papers, updates and recommendations for working groups and governance forums, and presenting product matters where appropriate.

• Maintaining effective product records, trackers, processes and governance evidence to support oversight, decision-making and audit readiness.

• Knowledge of Standard Life products and propositions is desirable.

• Ability to take ownership of defined activities and deliver work with a good level of independence, while recognising when guidance or escalation is required.

• Experience assessing product or customer impacts and translating detailed information into clear requirements, recommendations or actions.

• Ability to manage competing priorities across BAU and project activity, with strong organisation and attention to detail.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to prepare clear governance material and explain product matters to different audiences.

• A collaborative approach and confidence working with stakeholders across business and technical teams.

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with sound judgement and a practical approach to resolving issues.

  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing
