Kayleigh Walker

Senior Change Governance Manager @NewDay

Preston, GB

Responsible for all governance aspects for business change including reporting, processes, risks and controls. Managing a small team, I provide a reporting suite for all levels of the business up to ExCo to report on the strategic projects of the business providing details of RAG status, risks and milestones. I implemented a Minimum Standards document framework to guarantee that our strategic initiatives are fully governed and have all appropriate documentation and control procedures.I have additional roles as Data Co-ordinator and Data Steward for my department to ensure that all risks, controls and actions are fully documented, risks are accepted or have actions to mitigate, controls are fully attested to and reported on to the Operational Risk committee within the business. I create a Risk Register for the department and work with all risk owners to ensure these are fully up to date but also help with decisions to down/upgrade any risks. As data steward I am responsible for ensuring our Information Asset register and End User development register are kept up to date and managed accordingly. Both these roles require me to provide guidance and support to the rest of the business on how to manage risks and controls within their teams.I manage quarterly planning rounds for the department. Working with the product owners across the department, I support in developing the roadmaps using cross functional planning techniques. I ensure that any risks, dependencies, descoped activities and priorities are considered in order to progress. Once structured, I run a planning playback session across the teams to solidify the roadmap and connecting a full plan.
