  Develop the skill of influencing ExCo‑level stakeholders and shaping governance outcomes through organisation, insight, and persistence.
• Career progression:
  Future opportunities include senior Risk Policy & Governance, Company Secretariat, or Business Manager / Chief of Staff roles.

Action tracking and follow‑through:

• Maintain a centralised action log across ALCO and risk committees.

Stakeholder engagement and 1:1 review:

• Plan working sessions with key stakeholders to review complex ICAAP/ILAAP/WDP and risk topics ahead of formal committee review.
• Ensure non‑risk specialists receive concise briefing material to enable informed challenge in committees.

Governance design and continuous improvement:

• Translate regulatory feedback into concrete improvements for ALCO and related committees.
• Optimise meeting effectiveness, reporting quality, and attendance.
• Align governance standards with Company Secretariat and group‑wide best practices.
