This is a specialist role for an individual with deep Market Risk, FRTB IMA, Regulatory Capital and Controls experience, who can bridge the gap between BAU Risk teams and Transformation functions. The successful candidate will play a key role in interpreting regulatory requirements, strengthening control frameworks, analysing capital calculations and ensuring the successful implementation of FRTB-related changes.

- Interpret and assess new FRTB regulatory requirements and support their implementation across the business.
- Partner with Market Risk Managers, Front Office, Transformation and Technology teams to define and deliver regulatory change requirements.
- Develop and enhance control frameworks supporting FRTB capital calculations and reporting processes.
- Perform end-to-end analysis and oversight of both:
- FRTB Standardised Approach (SA) capital calculations
- FRTB Internal Models Approach (IMA) capital calculations
- Analyse risk exposures, capital impacts and reporting outputs, providing meaningful commentary to stakeholders.
- Challenge existing processes, identify control gaps and recommend improvements to strengthen the control environment.
- Support requirements gathering, solution design and implementation activities for regulatory change initiatives.
- Define test scenarios, review UAT outcomes and support successful production deployment of FRTB-related deliveries.
- Represent Traded Risk within regulatory and FRTB working groups and governance forums.
- Partner with BAU teams to ensure controls, reporting processes and operational procedures remain robust and scalable.
