I have enjoyed my experience in London. However, the risk manager's performance in London has left much to be desired, to say the least.

She demonstrated a disheartening lack of foundational knowledge in her role. This not only hindered effective risk management but also undermined the confidence of the team she's supposed to lead. Despite numerous attempts to provide constructive feedback, she remained obstinately defensive, refusing to acknowledge her shortcomings and blaming her team for mistakes we often did not make.

One of the most glaring issues is her habitual tardiness and dismissive attitude towards meetings. Punctuality is not just a matter of courtesy but a reflection of professionalism and respect for others' time. Furthermore, her tendency to employ scare tactics fostered an atmosphere of anxiety and distrust rather than constructive problem-solving.

Interpersonal skills are paramount in any managerial position, yet she appears to lack them entirely. She failed to celebrate the team's successes, instead focusing solely on shortcomings and assigning blame. This blame-shifting behavior not only erodes team morale but also highlights her inability to take responsibility for her own actions.

In light of these deficiencies, it's evident that she is ill-suited for a managerial role. Rather than fostering a collaborative environment conducive to effective risk management, she exacerbates tensions and impedes progress. I would suggest that she reassess her career path and consider roles better aligned with her skillset and temperament.

Higher management - If you get a chance, please have a word with the London team and take action.

The team deserves a capable, knowledgeable, and trustworthy manager.
