Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Experience with SQL would be a strong advantage, particularly as it will support data interrogation within the bank’s new Finacle core banking system.
Experience with UK regulatory reporting platforms is also highly desirable. The bank currently uses:
- RegData and BEEDS for submission of regulatory returns.
- WIRES for the creation of XBRL regulatory reporting files.
Candidates with experience using equivalent XBRL/regulatory reporting platforms such as VERMEG, Regnology, Moody’s, or similar systems will also be considered.
Ideal Background
This would suit someone who enjoys getting into the detail of regulatory data but also wants to contribute to the automation and improvement of regulatory reporting processes rather than working purely within a traditional BAU reporting position.
