Transformation, data and technology: Sponsor a multi-year transformation roadmap across risk decisioning, collections, payment journeys and fraud management; secure alignment on investment priorities; deploy advanced analytics, real-time monitoring and automated case management; and establish benefits realisation disciplines that deliver measurable commercial, customer and control outcomes. Regulatory, assurance and executive governance: Act as the senior accountable leader for operational compliance across the portfolio; maintain readiness for regulatory review and independent assurance; oversee material incidents and remediation; provide clear reporting and recommendations to executive governance forums; and ensure regulatory change is implemented sustainably and on time. Leadership, partnerships and organisational capability: Lead a complex onshore and offshore function through senior leaders; create clear accountability and succession depth; own strategic relationships with agencies, credit bureaus and payment partners; shape workforce and sourcing decisions; and build a high-performance culture grounded in judgement, customer outcomes and continuous improvement.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
