Provide legal services and advice, as required to all levels of business management within agreed service standards, liaising as necessary with external providers, to ensure that legal considerations are fully taken into account and risks appropriately managed.
Participate in the identification, analysis and resolution of any proposals by business management likely to give rise to contraventions of the law, in order to safeguard the legal, financial and reputational standing of the Group.
Direct and indirect responsibility for external legal spend up to agreed limits.
Provide seminars, reports and training to the Group as required, in respect of legal matters within the remit of the Legal department, to ensure that the relevant staff are provided with the level of understanding and competence required to perform their roles.
Monitor, analyse and report on current and potential developments in the law, and the Group’s products and documentation, anticipating legal implications for the Group.
Briefing, educating, coaching and advising business colleagues, to ensure that risks are managed, and that effective systems and processes continue to be developed.
Monitor and implement Group risk policies.
