The DA&S division is still growing into itself and evolving -, we have open discussions and collaborate to agree what is our DA&S way of doing things. There is a lot of energy that comes with that.

**What is the most challenging thing about this opportunity?**

That we run and build activities at the same time. We have a workplan of established risk management activities to deliver, but also have a lot of uplift activities to get us to our longer-term goals.
