We’re looking for an experienced Governance & Assurance Lead to help shape how enterprise change is governed, assured, and continuously improved across Skipton Group. If you thrive on creating clarity, reducing delivery risk, and providing independent insight that influences executive decision‑making, this could be your next big move.
At Skipton, we're founded on fairness. We exist to do right by our members - and we believe that starts with doing right by our people. So whoever you are and whatever you bring, there's a place for you here and a genuine plan for where you go next.

Every day at Skipton is innovation day. Join our Technology team and you’ll discover that we’re constantly focused on real challenges as we build the tools that get things done for our members - quicker than you imagine.
We work in a hybrid way, balancing flexibility with collaboration. For this role, you'll typically spend three days a week in our Skipton office, with the remaining two days working from home.
What You’ll Need
Try to summarise them in around 5-7 bullet points (although again, you may need more or fewer than this).
What’s In It For You
Your work matters.
And the way we reward you matters, too.
At Skipton, we offer pay and benefits that really do make life better, together with a genuine thank you for making a difference.
We’re here to make life better for our members.
About Skipton.
Our story began in 1853 in Skipton, North Yorkshire. Today, you’ll find us across England and Scotland, from Aberdeen to Plymouth.
We help over a million members put down roots, save for what matters, and feel good about their money. As a mutual, they own us, so everything we do is for them.
You'll feel that same fairness and purpose in how all 2,500 of our colleagues work together, too
It all means that life at Skipton is more exciting than you imagine.
What it's like to work here
Life at Skipton
We talk and we listen to each other. And we make decisions as a team. That way, you get all the support you need to do work that works for everyone.
For most of our roles there's the option of blended working, which means we mix working from home and meeting in person. The right balance depends on your role, and what works best for you, your manager, and your team.
We also value what everyone brings to Skipton. And we create a fair place where you can be yourself. Our colleague networks play a big role in this. They connect people with similar life experiences and make our workplace warm, friendly, inclusive and welcoming.
It’s not just our members who are important to us.
You are, too.
Lots of organisations talk about wellbeing, but they don’t always back it up. As a mutual, we put people first. And that includes the people who work here. So, when we say we care about your wellbeing, we mean it.
Wellbeing isn't just one thing. It’s about feeling good, having energy, and being able to be yourself and perform at your best. That’s why we offer help for your mental and physical health across five key areas.
What’s more, it’s help that you can actually use too - not just read about.
