Deutsche Bank is a global banking business with strong roots in Germany and operations in over 70 countries. Their large but focused footprint gives an established position in Europe plus a significant presence in the Americas and Asia Pacific.

AMS is a global workforce solutions partner committed to creating inclusive, dynamic, and future-ready workplaces. We help organisations adapt, grow, and thrive in an ever-evolving world by building, shaping, and optimising diverse talent strategies. We partner with Deutsche Bank to support their contingent recruitment processes.

On behalf of Deutsche Bank, we are looking for an End User Application and Operating Systems Compliance Lead for a 6 month contract (with potential for extension) based in London.

Purpose of the role: This role will support end-user security, compliance and governance across end-user applications, operating across technology, security, product, application and service teams to strengthen compliance oversight, improve remediation discipline and provide reliable evidence for audit and regulatory requirements.

What you'll do:

• Govern end-user application compliance, patching and vulnerability management across a broad portfolio of Windows-based workplace applications.
• Monitor application compliance dashboards and reporting to identify unsupported versions, vulnerabilities, and end-of-life risks.
• Coordinate remediation activities with Application Owners, Technology Owners, Engineering, Security, and Patch Management teams.
• Drive application patching and upgrade governance, ensuring releases and updates are delivered within agreed risk and compliance timelines.
• Manage exception and risk acceptance processes, ensuring all exceptions are documented, approved, tracked, and reviewed through to closure.
• Facilitate regular governance and patching review forums, escalating risks, blockers, and overdue remediation activities.
• Produce and validate compliance dashboards, vulnerability tracking reports, audit evidence, and control documentation.
• Support internal and external audits by providing reporting, evidence, and compliance oversight across end-user technologies.

The skills you'll need:

• Experience leading compliance, governance, vulnerability management, or patch management activities within a large enterprise environment.
• Strong understanding of Windows desktop environments, application lifecycle management, software patching and release governance.
• Proven ability to analyse compliance data, produce dashboards and provide meaningful reporting to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
• Experience coordinating cross-functional teams, including Engineering, Security, Operations, Application Owners, and Service Management teams.
• Knowledge of vulnerability management, risk remediation, exception governance and audit controls.
• Strong stakeholder management skills with the ability to influence and drive remediation actions across multiple teams.
• Experience supporting audit, regulatory, or risk management activities and producing associated documentation and evidence.
• Background working within a large global organisation managing a diverse portfolio of end-user applications, rather than ownership of a single application or platform.
