• Articulate and tell the story of the benefits of the CMP proposition, tailored to specific client needs

• Build, maintain, engage and manage multiple stakeholders, internally & externally to build brand awareness and knowledge of our offering to optimise business results

• Review, evaluate and mitigate potential risks, escalating where necessary, with the ability to juggle multiple projects and competing priorities to ensure adherence to the LBG risk framework and wider industry regulations

• Represent the business at decision making forums internally and externally
