  • Facilitate regular governance meetings with relevant stakeholders and ensure corrective actions are undertaken in a timely manner, escalating to the Portfolio Governance Manager where necessary.
  • Maintain regular oversight on the level of compliance and effectiveness of governance processes, as well as seeking actively feedback from stakeholders to determine if governance processes need to be adapted or changed to better suit business needs.
