If you’re looking for a career that will help you stand out, join HSBC, and fulfil your potential - whether you want a career that could take you to the top, or simply take you in an exciting new direction, HSBC offers opportunities, support and rewards that will take you further.
We're one of the largest banking and financial services organisations in the world, with a network that covers more than 50 countries and territories. We aim to be where the growth is, enabling businesses to thrive and economies to prosper, and, ultimately, helping people to fulfil their hopes and realise their ambitions.
We're currently seeking an experienced professional to join our team in the role of Senior Manager - Recovery and Resolution Planning.
This role will present you with an ideal opportunity to sit at the centre of HSBC’s Recovery and Resolution Planning agenda within HSBC Corporate & Institutional Banking and the European Resolution Group, with real visibility and impact on how the firm prepares for stress and resolution scenarios. You’ll help shape and maintain core deliverables like the legal entity Group Recovery Plan, Resolvability Assessment Framework Self‑Assessment and governance papers for senior committees, while also driving practical capability through management actions, systems/process input, and “fire drills” to test readiness. It’s a high‑profile, cross‑functional stakeholder role (Group Recovery and Resolution Planning Office, European Resolution Group entities, finance, capital, stress testing and liquidity teams) that suits someone who enjoys complex problem-solving, influencing, and producing high-quality written outputs with scope to deputise for the Head of Recovery & Resolution Office/ European Resolution Group when needed.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
