Reporting to the Director of Direct Retail, you will play a key role in shaping the future direction of our Direct Retail business. You will lead the development and execution of strategy, drive large-scale transformation initiatives, and enhance business performance to support sustainable growth, operational excellence, and outstanding customer outcomes.

Working closely with senior leaders across AXA Ireland and the wider AXA Group, you will identify opportunities to modernise our customer journeys, accelerate innovation, and ensure the Direct Retail function is equipped to deliver on its growth ambitions.

At AXA, we work smart empowering our people to balance their time between home and the office in a way that works best for them, their team, and our customers. This role can be based in Dublin, Derry, or Belfast with hybrid working in place.

Act as a trusted advisor to senior management, providing performance reporting, strategic insights, and recommendations.

Lead transversal projects of strategic importance, working with AXA Group and external partners where required.

Monitor external trends and emerging innovations, including the evolution of the "contact centre of the future", conducting research and development activities to identify opportunities for AXA Ireland.

Ensure all supporting processes comply with CPC and other relevant regulatory requirements, working closely with Compliance teams.

Lead the Direct Retail Risk function, ensuring projects and operational activities comply with regulatory, legal, risk, and governance requirements.

Proactively identify, assess, and mitigate risks associated with strategic initiatives, operational processes, and transformation programmes.
