- Provide input into improving qualitative and quantitative measures used to measure model performance and model risk.

- Set up feedback sessions/checkpoints, implement all feedback, or acknowledge and reason why feedback was not implemented.
- Accountability for project milestone, control and outcome management.
- Ensure significant findings are identified and discussed early in the process.
- Offer technical and professional guidance to less experienced staff.
- Drive the achievement of key objectives, as specified by IVU management.

Accountability: Management of Stakeholder Relationships (15%)
- Maintain a professional relationship with all stakeholders. These include, but are not limited to, model owners, model developers, model approvers and audit.
- Effective communication of model findings to all stakeholders.
- Either address (where able and competent) or escalate material concerns or bottlenecks to line manager (or relevant stakeholder) as early as possible to enable actions to be taken pre-emptively.
- Constructively challenge models and related processes. Engage with the stakeholders to get their perspective.
- On an ongoing basis, interact with internal stakeholders (e.g. model developers, IVU colleagues, model owners, model implementation, business representatives, etc.) to ensure common understanding of findings and concepts.
- Guide internal counterparties through relevant regulatory, policies, standards, sites and governance requirements.

Accountability: Development of Technical and Product Knowledge (10%)
- Develop own technical knowledge, regulatory/policy knowledge and softer skills independently from scheduled team training.
- Share own knowledge on informal and formal basis; support team’s overall development.
- Facilitate investigation and implementation of controls within other units to maximize early detection and mitigation of model risk.
