This role will interact with and influence the WCPR through the performance insight the team generates and evaluates. The team is also a key part in the implementation of our Turnaround Oversight Regime (PR24 final determinations) and how we monitor and hold companies to account for poor performance.

You will be comfortable adapting to different working styles, working collaboratively across teams and disciplines. Building trusted and collaborative relationships, will be essential to success.

The role also requires a high level of analytical competency; problem solving skills; excellent written and oral communication skills; and a track record of delivering against challenging deadlines.
