Location: London Other locations: Primary Location Only Date: 10 Mar 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. You will have the opportunity to work on business-critical engagements. In recent years we have helped investment banks improve their compliance with regulations such as the Basel 3 Regulatory Framework, FRTB and BCBS 239, and prepare for upcoming regulation around Liquidity and Interest Rate Risk and supporting our clients in leverage how to deploy AI in their businesses responsibly. 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. We come at transformation problems in the following ways with respect to technology: We are highly skilled at delivering and overseeing large scale technology change - from inception and requirements definition through to operational readiness. We prefer an agile methodology but are happy to work in whatever ways our client's demand. We are increasingly bringing technology assets to clients to help accelerate transformation. Our technology assets include proprietary EY tools as well as best-of-breed vendor tools. We deploy team members from on-shore, near-shore and off-shore teams, and often work alongside our major alliance partners, such as Microsoft, IBM, Snowflake, Moody's, Service Now and Pega to deploy solutions. 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. We are always mindful of the role we and our clients play in relation to long term sustainability and the drive to help financial services become a low carbon industry. We are already advising clients on sustainability and the enabling role that data and technology play. We are looking for Risk Technology Senior Consultants to join our team due to high demand and expected growth. Your key responsibilities Engagement delivery: roles vary from engagement to engagement, but are likely to include techno-functional analysis, solution and data architecture, solution design, and end to end implementation management. Solution development: contributing in a number of ways to the solutions that we bring to market to address the needs of our client. This could entail research, design of prototypes, software engineering and testing. Business development: we encourage the development of long-term trusted advisor relationships with our clients at an early stage in your career.

Location: London Other locations: Primary Location Only Date: 10 Mar 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. You will have the opportunity to work on business-critical engagements. In recent years we have helped investment banks improve their compliance with regulations such as the Basel 3 Regulatory Framework, FRTB and BCBS 239, and prepare for upcoming regulation around Liquidity and Interest Rate Risk and supporting our clients in leverage how to deploy AI in their businesses responsibly. 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. We come at transformation problems in the following ways with respect to technology: We are highly skilled at delivering and overseeing large scale technology change - from inception and requirements definition through to operational readiness. We prefer an agile methodology but are happy to work in whatever ways our client's demand. We are increasingly bringing technology assets to clients to help accelerate transformation. Our technology assets include proprietary EY tools as well as best-of-breed vendor tools. We deploy team members from on-shore, near-shore and off-shore teams, and often work alongside our major alliance partners, such as Microsoft, IBM, Snowflake, Moody's, Service Now and Pega to deploy solutions. 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. We are always mindful of the role we and our clients play in relation to long term sustainability and the drive to help financial services become a low carbon industry. We are already advising clients on sustainability and the enabling role that data and technology play. We are looking for Risk Technology Senior Consultants to join our team due to high demand and expected growth. Your key responsibilities Engagement delivery: roles vary from engagement to engagement, but are likely to include techno-functional analysis, solution and data architecture, solution design, and end to end implementation management.
