Risk and Assurance Coordinator

Are you an experienced administrator with excellent communication skills? Do you have a keen eye for detail and a passion for delivering the best possible service?

We are looking for a proactive and detail-oriented Risk and Assurance Coordinator to join our Risk and Assurance team.

Our Risk and Assurance team plays a crucial role in ensuring our success by maintaining industry-leading standards and delivering an exceptional risk and compliance service to the British Heart Foundation (BHF).

As our Risk and Assurance Coordinator, you will provide essential administrative support related to the monitoring and reporting of the Risk and Assurance team. Your responsibilities will span across a variety of critical areas, including risk management, shop security, income protection, internal audit, and insurance.

You’ll act as the main point of contact for all internal and external security support requests, supporting the case management system and assisting the team to deliver an essential service.

This is a varied, hand-on role and an exciting opportunity to make a real impact and support the successful delivery of the wider BHF strategic mission.

Working arrangements

This is a blended role, where your work will be dual located between your home and our London Office. 
 
At the BHF we believe in the power of being together, so our colleagues on blended contracts can expect to spend some time in their office, at least one day each week, on average.  The use of our office spaces is driven in part by your role and the activities you need to do. This may vary from time to time, so you will need to work in a flexible way to unlock your best work for our cause.
