You will focus on managing, reviewing and analysing issues and identifying options and recommendations working closely with technical analysts to ensure business functional requirements are correctly translated into technical specifications.

You will have experience working on regulatory capital or liquidity projects, ideally Large Exposures (APS221 / 222). Familiarity with Axiom would be highly advantageous - in particular, knowledge of Axiom reporting Taxonomy. Additionally, any knowledge of Moody's Risk Authority and/or Alteryx & PowerBI would be beneficial for this role.
