• Perform risk assessments and internal audits to monitor legal and regulatory compliance across departments;
• Prepare structured and insightful reports on regulatory requirements and related action plans, ensuring traceability and transparency;
• Prepare formal responses to questions and investigations conducted by official bodies;
