AI-Enabled Governance Associate (f/m/x)

This role starts with a strong focus on third-party-related governance, including external providers, partners, and intra-group relationships. Over time, the scope can evolve further toward governance excellence, KPI/SLA monitoring, control effectiveness, and AI-supported process improvement.

A core part of this role is to help us use AI and automation in a practical way across recurring governance workflows. This includes identifying repetitive manual work, improving how information is collected and assessed, making documentation and reporting more efficient, and helping turn process-heavy governance tasks into more scalable operating routines.

In this role you will:

• Support and improve governance processes related to third parties, partners, and operational oversight in a regulated environment.
• Identify repetitive manual work and fragmented workflows, and improve them through better process design, standardisation, AI-supported execution, and selective automation.
• Use AI tools in a practical way to support analysis, information structuring, questionnaire handling, documentation drafting, summarisation, reporting support, and follow-up preparation.
• Work with internal subject-matter experts to better understand, improve, and scale KPI, SLA, and monitoring approaches across both internal services and third-party services.
• Help optimise KPI monitoring, service reporting, and governance transparency so operational performance becomes more measurable, decision-useful, and actionable.
• Contribute to making recurring governance work more scalable, consistent, and less manual over time.
• Support governance routines such as reviews, reporting, meeting preparation, action tracking, and evidence collection.
• Support assessments, reviews, and due diligence processes for new and existing providers or partners.
• Support governance documentation, registers, supporting evidence, and process transparency for internal stakeholders, auditors, regulators, and relevant partners.

You’ll be successful in this role if you:

• Are excited to learn how governance, controls, third-party processes, and operational oversight work in practic and the can be optimized,
• Have strong analytical skills and are comfortable structuring information, spotting gaps, and turning observations into practical next steps.
• Work in a structured, reliable, and detail-oriented way, with strong follow-up discipline.
• Bring a pragmatic, hands-on mindset and enjoy improving recurring processes rather than only designing concepts.
• Are comfortable using AI tools in your day-to-day work and are curious about how they can help make operational and governance processes more efficient.
• Are motivated by the idea of reducing manual work through better workflows, smarter tooling, and selective automation.
• Have enough technical affinity to understand IT services, service levels, incidents, monitoring concepts, and operational dependencies without needing to be an engineer.
• Communicate clearly in English and enjoy working with different stakeholders across business, technology, and control functions. German is a plus.
