The role sits within the team.

You'll support or take the lead on banking workstreams for large change programmes, supporting projects from discovery phase and impact assessment through to delivery and ensuring changes land safely and successfully in the business and at external partners (outsourced service providers and banks). You'll work with and manage key internal and external stakeholders (banks and outsource partners) and will be responsible for managing your deliverables, demand and priorities across multiple project workstreams.

What are we looking for?

• Experience of working within a strong financial controls environment
• Experience of working in an operational banking or treasury function with a good knowledge of the UK payments landscape and transactional banking is essential.
• Experience of working on large scale change programmes.
• Strong analytical skills and attention to detail
• Strong stakeholder management skills
• A strong communicator with the ability to build excellent working relationships
• Experience of working with retail banks and other payments-service-providers to deliver payments and banking change would be highly desirable.

We want to hire the whole version of you.

We are committed to ensuring that everyone feels accepted and welcome applicants from all backgrounds. If your experience looks different from what we’ve advertised and you believe that you can bring value to the role, we’d love to hear from you.

 If you require any adjustments to the recruitment process, please let us know so we can help you to be at your best.
