Are you able to take ownership of credit risk data and reporting systems? Can you lead successful end to end projects? Will you collaborate with a range of internal and external stakeholders? If yes, then we may have the role for you. 

As the Lead Credit Risk Analytics Manager, you will be responsible for the development, implementation and effectiveness of our framework for credit risk data, reporting and systems. This role will play an integral part of supporting the rollout of our IRB programme in the bank and will be passionate about driving process efficiency and automation. 

Depending on the team, most of our roles offer flexible working.

So what would you be doing?...

•Acting as deputy chair of the Risk Data Mart Steering Committee and Credit Risk Data Quality Framework Forum
•Creating and maintaining credit risk data items used for risk reporting, modelling and validation
•Responsible for collation and migration of data from current system to strategic risk data mart
•Leading workstreams to review, develop and maintain data quality reports, data lineage and control processes 
•Producing standard and adhoc credit risk reports and regulatory data submissions 
•Making sure there is high quality and accuracy of data and reports, identifying inconsistencies, ensuring issues are fixed or escalated

•Defining and leading workstreams to improve the bank’s credit risk data provision and analysis 
•Promoting and leading automation and code optimisation, to reduce manual interventions and error

You need to be this kind of person…

• Passionate about providing unparalleled levels of service and convenience for customers
• Prepared to stick at something – we get nervous if someone has jumped from job to job as we want people who are prepared to learn and grow 
• Able to work and learn quickly in a fast paced, fun and dynamic environment
• Care about doing a great job and exceeding expectations with the quality of what you do

And... we are a bank so risk is a part of everything we do. We love people who take responsibility, do the right thing for customers, colleagues and Metro Bank and have the courage to call out any concerns.

We always support colleagues to develop their skills. But to be successful in this job you really do need to already be able to do most of these wonderful things…

•Understand the risks associated with your job and what that means for you, Metro Bank and all our stakeholders
•Naturally, you will need a sound understanding of credit risk with focus on best practices in credit risk data management, reporting and measurement
•To be successful in this role you will have experience of data systems, architecture, data quality frameworks, data lineage, controls and procedures
•You will need to have knowledge of relevant regulatory requirements and regulations including IRB, IFRS9 and BCBS239
•In order to hit the ground running you will have first class understanding of SAS/SQL and the ability to lead projects
•You will have the ability to coach and guide colleagues

Important Footnote Diverse teams really are the best teams. We know that candidates (especially women, research tells us) may be put off applying for a job unless they can tick every box.  We also know that ‘normal’ office hours aren’t always doable, and while we can’t accommodate every flexible working request we are happy to be asked.  So if you are excited about working with us and think you can do much of what we are looking for but aren’t sure if you are 100% there yet… why not give it a whirl? Please note that sometimes we may close a job earlier for applications if we are inundated with amazing candidates.. Good luck!
