YOUR NEW ROLE

Here at Hitachi Rail, we have a superb opportunity for two experienced Senior Investigator & Case Managers to join our Compliance team. As a Senior Investigator & Case Manager you will be a key member of the Compliance function that is responsible for delivering a compliance programme for the Rail business unit, consistent with the rapidly evolving compliance landscape within the Hitachi Group.
This role will work closely with the wider Hitachi Rail Legal & Compliance team globally, requiring astuteness in navigating the organisation, and an ability to positively influence and secure stakeholder buy-in with clear and concise communication. Beyond collaboration within Legal & Compliance, regular interaction and partnership with colleagues in Human Resources, Finance, Internal Audit, Procurement, and Commercial functions should also be anticipated.
Investigations may be in multiple jurisdictions and across numerous lines of business, including recently acquired entities. The Senior Investigator & Case Manager will be expected to effectively handle multiple cases simultaneously whilst effectively promote ethical behavior and drive a strong compliance culture across the organisation. The selected candidate, to be based in UK will be an empowered member of the global Compliance team with technical remit for investigations, additionally supporting with responsibilities for operational deployment of the compliance programme as a whole, where needed.
