Banking & Capital Markets, Senior Consultant, Risk Technology Consulting FS Location: London Other locations: Primary Location Only Date: 11 Jan 2025 Requisition ID: Our UK Capital Markets technology and data capability helps our investment banking clients to deliver complex business and regulatory transformation, enabled by technology. The opportunity EY has a market leading Risk practice which requires a strong data and technology focus to deliver strategic future proof solutions with a control and efficiency lens. This presents an opportunity for Technology Consulting to support our clients in helping them to articulate their technology and data strategy and implement their transformations by harnessing the power of their data, identifying business enabling technology tools and capabilities and streamlining their technology estates.

As we look to the future prudential regulation will increasingly have a Climate Risk component, and EY have been recognised as leaders in ESG and sustainability consulting. We also help banks to become more profitable, either by developing new revenue streams, or crucially, by reducing costs. While we predominantly serve the UK market, our clients are global, and we collaborate extensively with our fellow capital markets teams in EMEIA, the US and APAC.

Increasingly we collaborate with FinTech firms too. We are passionate about keeping pace with the latest emerging technology. We have recently invested in senior hires in Cloud, Digital, Intelligent Automation and AI. But we aren't interested in technology for the sake of technology - we combine the tech mindset with EY's deep business and regulatory knowledge in order to deploy technology intelligently to solve business problems.

This acquisition aligns with dss+'s broader mission to drive sustainable impact, improve risk management, and enhance operational performance for its clients across various industries. Together, we look forward to a future filled with innovation, growth and continued success. What will you be doing? We have a vacancy for an experienced Principal Consultant within our team to support the firm's current growth and to fulfil ambitions of future expansion.

In this role, you will lead ESG projects for lenders and investors in infrastructure projects, ensuring compliance with environmental, social, governance, and health and safety standards, as well as driving sustainable improvement and delivering value for our clients. Your assessments will guide investment decisions to align with sustainability goals and legislation. You will also have a role in managing the London-based ESG team. This will involve line managing junior team members, offering technical oversight and fostering a collaborative, growth-oriented environment. You will produce and supervise client reports, ensuring high-quality, clear analyses on ESG and sustainability matters. Additionally, you will manage client relationships as needed, ensuring tailored solutions that meet client expectations and supporting long-term partnerships. Who are you? The ideal candidate will have a bachelor's degree, with a track record in transaction advisory.

Now part of dss+, the company provides an exciting platform for career growth, as it expands its global reach and enhances its capabilities in technical, commercial, and sustainability consulting. Candidates will benefit from diverse project exposure, the chance to collaborate with senior experts, and the ability to work on cutting-edge ESG initiatives, which are critical in today's infrastructure landscape.
