Act as primary user and lead for CAFM and digital compliance systems (e.g. Data Station, Dome, Records for Buildings). Maintain document accuracy, system integrity, and data governance standards. Upload contractor documents, inspection reports, and statutory records in line with audit readiness requirements. Develop and produce compliance dashboards, risk logs, and monthly performance reports.

Audit, Assurance & Risk Governance

Maintain the estate's compliance risk register and escalate non-compliance issues to senior stakeholders. Coordinate internal and external compliance audits including related ISO requirements. Work closely with the Senior Risk, Safety & Compliance Manager to review trends, track KPIs, and implement improvements. Monitor supplier compliance against documentation and service delivery KPIs.

Stakeholder Engagement

Support the training matrix and promote a proactive compliance culture across the team. Work with ESG leads and operational managers to deliver sustainability-linked compliance objectives. Liaise with partners as required on safety-related communications and drills.
