Nirosha Tharmachandran, Risk and Audit Executive

Tell us a bit about yourself?

I joined the Which? Audit and Risk Management team in 2019 after deciding to change industries having only worked in financial services before. Despite having audit experience, risk management was new to me and an area I wanted to develop my skills in!

Whilst being at Which? I have been fortunate in getting to work on some interesting and varied audits which have resulted in some real changes to the business and its operations. Equally, I have enjoyed running risk workshops (something I had never done before!) and building some great relationships with various teams through our business partnering framework. 

Which? has also supported me in continuing to develop my knowledge and skills in both areas through completing training in effective audit techniques and risk management principles. 

What are some accomplishments you're proud of? 

I am proud of being nominated for a values award for an audit I worked on (remotely) last year and generally the great relationships I have enjoyed building across the organisation despite having spent more time working from home than I have done in the office since joining Which?!

What are some upcoming activities you are excited about?

I’m really excited about being part of the Diversity and Inclusion taskforce and continuing to drive forward our goals in this area as it’s something I am truly passionate about! As well as helping Which? become a more diverse and inclusive organisation, I am really excited about getting to know more like-minded individuals across the business through our upcoming work.
