End Date Saturday 27 April 2024 We support flexible working - click here for more information on flexible working options Flexible Working Options Hybrid Working, Job Share Job Description Summary JOB TITLE: Business Manager SALARY: £57,546 - £75,780 LOCATIONS: Bristol, London, Edinburgh, Halifax Job Description We re on an exciting journey and there couldn t be a better time to join us as a Business Manager. We re throwing out the rulebook on what we have done in the past and are changing at pace - which is where you come in. The investments we re making in our people, data, and technology are leading to innovative projects, fresh possibilities, and countless new ways for our people to work, learn, and thrive. We are committed to investing in the future, and over the next few years, we are embarking on an unbelievable transformative journey for our infrastructure, our customers, and your career. Why should you join? As we go through our multi-billion-pound transformation, you will be a leading figure within the process. You ll be engaging with stakeholders of all levels, across the business. You ll be exposed to the key work being undertaken and will be the person controlling the budgets for the platforms and collaborating with Product Owners and Engineering teams. With the experience and exposure across the business, there are some great opportunities to grow into more niche roles too, should you wish to. Some of the other key things you ll be doing are: Supporting BAL activity around identifying shortcomings, suggesting improvements, and implementing approved revisions to platform processes, systems and procedures. Manage and support delivery of required outcomes in terms of governance reporting for the Platform initiatives. Manage risk reporting and supporting platform leadership with risk management activities, including Audit, Risk & Control Self-Assessment and supporting the Divisional Resilience and Security Office. Manage the BAU financial position for your aligned Platform, including managing, and reviewing technology cost, budgeting, reporting and stretch allocation, as well as supporting with the four-year operating plan, providing financial analysis and insight.

What you ll need We re not looking for people that know all the answers. We re looking for people that thrive on being given a problem and finding a solution. We re looking for people who are comfortable when they need to say no; who aren t afraid to challenge the status quo and push back on stakeholders who may be more senior. There are some things we are looking for in you though: It s essential that you are comfortable influencing, challenging and articulating to stakeholders of all levels - many of which will have differing priorities. A background in program/project management and financial/risk management would be beneficial, especially from a complex organisation. You ll need to be proficient in Excel, PowerPoint, and automation tools like Power BI. You ll need excellent time management skills to handle multiple responsibilities and meet deadlines across a fast-moving and complex set of changing requirements. Understanding of the financial services industry and agile experience in a complex organisation is beneficial.
