- Enhance and maintain SpeakUP’s investigation manual and related templates, guidance materials and other resources so that they are clear and current.
- Provide input and insights into SpeakUP’s management and governance reporting.

- Work collaboratively with other investigations teams across CBA to ensure alignment of processes and practices, where appropriate, and to share organisational learnings.
- Contribute to SpeakUP’s management of its risks, including its controls and compliance arrangements.
- Help shape and implement the ART and SpeakUP team strategy.

- Tertiary qualifications in law or another relevant field.
- 10+ years’ experience in workplace investigations, litigation, cultural reviews, or other investigative or alternative dispute resolution processes.
