• Translate aggregate book intelligence into actionable risk design, risk threshold recommendations, and investigation prioritisation
• Set the analytical agenda — what gets monitored, how patterns are surfaced, and how findings flow into product and commercial decisions

• Benchmark internal trader behaviour against broader market trends and competitor product structures
• Represent the department in cross-functional forums covering Product, Tech, Marketing, Community, and Partner stakeholders
