The Group Transformation division of LBG is a core enabler of the Group's Bank of the Future ambition, to ensure that customer and colleague needs are met in alignment with Group strategy.

You'll be a qualified accountant, with a background of working in large, complex organisations.

You'll be naturally curious and have a genuine interest in change and technology. And you have knowledge (backed up by relevant experience) of accounting standards relating to Change and Fixed Assets.

You thrive in an environment where relationship building and management are key to success and you're always focussed on adding real value to your internal customers.
