- Lease provisions and TP1 covenants (including review of new site leases)
- Work closely with the operations team in each business to ensure the KPIs that are in place effectively monitor and manage compliance in line with above;

- Work closely with the group audit & risk committee, staff and executive management to assist the business in operating its risk management framework (reporting and analysis of risks);
- Maintenance of standard terms of business and commercial terms with clients;
