Tired of looking at the same old models?

If you want a chance to take ownership, develop, manage and test the way a business does its modelling then with us you can do just that while also getting the autonomy and responsibility you want.

About the role

In this role, your work will play a key role in the way financial sustainability and credit risk is managed. You’ll do this by taking ownership of the ongoing development, management and testing of the core models that the Society uses. This includes IRB, IFRS9, stress testing, climate risk and Credit Risk Scorecards among others.

Alongside your day to day delivery, you’ll always have an eye on regulatory compliance to ensure the teams models are aligned to this as well take responsibility for understanding upcoming regulatory change that could impact them.

While you’ll have no direct reports, this is a visible role within the team, and you’ll be expected to share your SME knowledge and support others with their development and help create a high performing team.
