Find out today, we'd like to discuss the following opportunity. 

Imagine that your risk data analysis team truly drives the solutions that sustain our business and the products that serve our customers. Our Credit Risk Data Analysts, Data Engineers and Product Owners stand out from the rest due to the complex environment of regulatory requirements and the historical data that is relevant for our domain. We need a team lead who constantly questions the status quo and continuously looks for improvements.

The role is suitable for candidates willing to provide focus on development of their team members first. Next, focus on progressing and improving solution delivery and their associated escalation points, and finally someone who understands the content of the work to a sufficient level so that they can act as a sparing partner to our professionals.

Currently we are on an exciting journey, re-engineering the unchartered territory of historical data and making that data fit for purpose to enable our modelers to develop and maintain the models used within the bank.

Within our environment there are huge amounts of data, from a multitude of systems, covering the entire operational scope of the bank and to add additional complexity, going as far back in time as twenty years. We have the challenge to take the past and make it look like the present so we can predict the future.
