This is a hands-on role where you’ll contribute to strengthening our risk and compliance culture across investment, development, operational and corporate activities. You’ll support the design and monitoring of controls, coordinate risk and compliance reporting and help drive continuous improvement across GPT’s risk management, compliance and assurance frameworks.
