  • Support initiatives to embed “Control by Design” principles and automation.

  • Recommend improvements to streamline manual controls and enhance efficiency.

  • Provide input into change programmes to ensure testing outcomes are considered and integrated.

To be considered for this role, you’ll need to demonstrate:


Risk & Control Expertise

  • Understanding of operational risk and control frameworks.

  • Experience in control testing methodologies and assurance practices.

  • Knowledge of non-financial risk types relevant to CIB (e.g., conduct, economic crime, data, resilience).


Data & Analytical Skills

  • Analytical skills for data-driven insights and root cause analysis.


Communication & Collaboration

  • Excellent communication skills for reporting and colleague engagement.

  • Some familiarity with Control by Design (CbD) methodology.


ABOUT WORKING FOR US

Our focus is to ensure we're inclusive every day, building an organisation that reflects modern society and celebrates diversity in all its forms. We want our people to feel that they belong and can be their best, regardless of background, identity or culture.

We were one of the first major organisations to set goals on diversity in senior roles, create a menopause health package, and a dedicated Working with Cancer initiative.

And it’s why we especially welcome applications from under-represented groups. We’re disability confident. So, if you’d like reasonable adjustments to be made to our recruitment processes, just let us know.

If you’re excited by the thought of becoming part of our team, get in touch. We’d love to hear from you!
