Compliance checklists and control frameworks.
Implement tooling to support:

Governance workflow management.
Audit and reporting tracking.
Drive adoption of “quality by design” and “compliance by default” principles.
Risk and issue management
Identifying, assessing, and managing quality and compliance risks across product portfolios.
Establishing escalation frameworks and remediation processes.
Providing clear visibility to leadership on risk exposure and mitigation status.
Continuous improvement
Defining and tracking quality KPIs and metrics (e.g. defect rates, rework, audit findings, delivery consistency)
Managing post-implementation reviews and incorporate learnings into standards.
Driving a culture of continuous improvement and operational excellence.
Stakeholder collaboration
Partner with:
Product Managers/Product Owners.
Engineering and Delivery teams.
Data, security, and risk functions.
External partners and vendors.
Act as the central point of authority for QA and compliance within the Product Office.
Success in this role will include:
QA and Compliance Framework (product lifecycle-aligned)
Standardised templates, checklists, and governance artefacts.
Defined NFR framework aligned to industry best practice.
Quality metrics dashboard and reporting pack.
Audit readiness and compliance assurance processes.
Risk registers and mitigation tracking.
You’ll need to have:
Proven experience in QA, compliance, or governance roles within digital, product, or technology environments.
Experience operating within structured product or delivery lifecycles.
