That gives us a big responsibility to support the UK economy, and we have a clear strategy to put customers first - and achieve our vision of becoming the best bank for customers.

We love to do things differently in COO Business Risk.

The purpose of the COO Business Risk Thematics team is to deliver in partnership with our GT business stakeholders, by empowering the delivery of inspirational change through well considered, agile and effective risk management.

The team service proposition centres around three key activities to help Group Transformation demonstrate a strong internal risk culture, through active ownership of their risk profile:

• Thematics - Focused risk management activity. Topics are driven by data insights and stakeholder demand, delivered over 1-2 sprints.
• Deep dives - Thorough risk management investigation and root cause analysis, resulting in clear improvement paths which are delivered in partnership with GT over 2-3 sprints.
• Response - Reactive Risk SME support to 'fire fight' situations which, if left unsupported, could result in the deterioration of the GT risk profile.

This role represents an opportunity for a highly motivated Risk professional to partner with Group Transformation (GT) to ensure their risks are understood, mitigated and controlled. They will help to ensure that our team and processes are designed to better embrace ways of working to deliver incrementally at pace; executing timely, business sponsored activity which is delivered collaboratively with Transformation (rather than against).
