Job Description

Overview:

At Solus, we believe that strong governance and a proactive approach to risk are essential to delivering excellence. As a Risk & Compliance Analyst, you'll play a key role in shaping how we manage risk, uphold compliance, and embed a culture of accountability across the business. This is a fantastic opportunity to grow your career in a supportive, forward-thinking environment where your voice will be heard.
Responsibilities:

Risk Management

Promote risk awareness and help colleagues integrate risk thinking into everyday activities. Maintain the Risk Register and Risk Universe, ensuring risks are clearly owned, mitigated, and monitored. Facilitate risk evaluation meetings, control assessments, and action planning. Work with Risk & Control Owners to improve internal controls and ensure risks remain within tolerance. Log and manage risk events and issues, escalating and resolving them in a timely manner. Support project and IT change initiatives with risk oversight. Contribute to the annual Risk Survey, Company Risk Assessment, and resilience planning.

Compliance & Governance

Oversee company policies and manage the Policy Portal. Support compliance activities such as operational resilience surveys and quarterly self-certifications. Maintain registers for gifts and hospitality, conflicts of interest, and personal relationships. Liaise with Aviva and other stakeholders on compliance matters and reporting.

Data Protection

Assist the Data Protection Officer in responding to Data Subject Access Requests (DSARs) and other privacy-related tasks. Ensure timely and effective communication with data subjects.

You'll be a key connector across teams--delivering training on risk and compliance topics, attending project and IT change meetings, and collaborating with colleagues in Health & Safety, Operations, HR, Finance, and more. Your role will help embed a culture of openness, accountability, and continuous improvement. You'll also contribute to governance meetings and ad-hoc, ensuring risk and compliance remain front of mind in everything we do.
Qualifications:
Experience in a risk, compliance, or governance role--or in a role with transferable skills. Strong organisational and communication skills. Familiarity with risk registers, internal controls, or regulatory frameworks. Ability to manage multiple priorities independently. Willingness to travel nationally and work flexibly when needed. A relevant qualification (e.g. M_o_R 4, IRM, ICA) is a bonus, but not essential.
