Job Details

Are you an analytical person with good communication skills? We have an exciting opportunity for an assistant manager to join our Analytics & Decisioning team within Decision Science.

We are responsible for the development, production and analysis of credit risk model performance reports across the Commercial Banking division. These packs play a key role in ensuring that the models and decisioning strategies used within Commercial Banking Risk remain fit for purpose. Accountabilities extend to the evaluation of model performance through to presenting results to stakeholders. The team is actively engaged in delivering new analytical capabilities that provide insight into credit risk model performance.

In return you'll be part of an inclusive and supportive team that values diversity and comprises a wide range of experience and agile working patterns. We promote a team culture which strives to enable all our colleagues to improve their potential. We have a reputation for successfully promoting and growing talent, and can support you through to the next stage of your career journey. You will be a key contributor to the Decision Science function and you will be encouraged to engage with colleagues within the Decision Science community and beyond.

What will you be doing?

As an assistant manager you will:

• Support the BAU production of the existing report suite, drive forward improvements and develop new reports
• Provide key data extracts and analysis supporting the needs of both the Decision Science and wider CBR communities
• Support the development and use of Decision Science data by developing a keen understanding of data and systems including the LeMans SAS platform, MS SQL server and the Group Data Warehouse (GDW)
• Collaborate and present your analyses to key colleagues across the risk division including those within Decision Science, Commercial Systems, Risk Reporting, BB and the SMB Credit risk teams

What Skills and Attributes are we Looking for?

To succeed in this role you require:

• Strong analytical and numeracy skills, evidenced by a degree in a numerate discipline, such as Mathematics, Statistics, Economics or Operational Research
• An ability to analyse and evaluate a range of data / information sources to produce innovative and insightful analysis
• A good working knowledge of MS Excel and experience of working with SAS or SQL
• Strong verbal and written communication skills including formal report production
• Attention to detail and ability to work on own initiative

The following attributes are not a pre-requisite to the role but ability to demonstrate these would be an advantage:

• A knowledge of Commercial Banking and an understanding of the basic principles and types of wholesale credit risk models
• General understanding of LBG's data and systems architecture, particularly in a commercial / wholesale risk environment
