AddressGovernance Manager
About the Role
We're on the lookout for a Governance Manager to join Youi and take the lead in managing our partnership and channel development initiatives.

Reporting directly to the Head of Strategic Partnerships, we're seeking a self-motivated individual who thrives on autonomy and is exceptionally well-organised.

Oversee Third-Party (TPs) – underwriting agency and their outsourced providers, ensuring alignment with guidelines and SLAs.
Integrate issues into Youi's management process and manage daily workflow in the Strategic Partnerships team, including partner negotiations and onboarding.
Facilitate initiative management activities related to our TPs.
Establish effective Third-Party monitoring, supervise obligations and customer outcomes, foster innovation, collaborate with stakeholders to drive improvement and deliver outcomes.
Ensure continuous improvement and compliance with the risk management framework, policies, and procedures.
Manage relationships with statutory regulators to maintain their confidence.

You should ideally possess:
A tertiary qualification, preferably in business, project management, risk, or finance.
Experience in overseeing and governing third parties, particularly with Underwriting agencies and Third-Party Claims Administrators.
Knowledge of legislative and technical requirements impacting the financial services industry.
Demonstrated ability to lead amidst ambiguity and provide clarity to stakeholders and colleagues.
