Responsibilities:
You’ll be the Nominated Senior Manager (NSM) who’ll lead and develop the Financial Crime strategy for our Consumer Lending and Consumer Relationships businesses. This includes defining the control environment to effectively manage Financial Crime risks whilst enabling the business to grow. Specifically, you’ll:
- Lead a large risk and operational team that constantly evolves and drives the right controls and risk outcomes within our business areas.
- Anticipate and respond to changes in the Financial Crime environment, and what this might mean for our business including constantly looking to improve the way we work.
- Lead the advancement of our ‘big ticket’ initiatives including an uplift in our anti-money laundering efforts, which has visibility to a senior audience.
- Champion improvements to how we most effectively engage with customers when investigating potential Financial Crime.
- Help and enable our Consumer businesses to grow and change whilst protecting from the harms of Financial Crime using your knowledge and expertise.
- Be accountable for our Consumer businesses following the Group’s Economic Crime Policy, as well as the expectations and requirements set out by the regulator.
- Be accountable for ensuring the Financial Crime services in other parts of our Group are carried out to the same standards you set for our Consumer businesses.
- Help drive our advocacy for changes needed to protect the UK from the harms of Financial Crime.
What we’re looking for:
Culture is critical and to us, is every bit as important as deep expertise. So we’re after someone who is a good collaborator and a deep expert. That means someone who has enough drive to make a difference, enough insight to influence, and enough positive energy to bring people with them. If this sounds like you, then read on.
- When it comes to Financial Crime and risk management, you’ve earned your stripes. This means you’ll have the technical skills to quickly understand control frameworks, assess if they are fit for purpose, and improve them.
- You’ll have been at the forefront of leading Financial Crime teams and the issues faced in the UK, and with that experience you can provide credible advice to our business leaders, whilst staying fresh to the latest industry trends and threats.
- You’ll have a proven ability to build, manage and lead an effective, high-performing risk function. One that is seen as an enabler of growth, rather than a ‘no’ function to be avoided.
- You’ll inspire your team with an emphasis towards purpose, constructive challenge, continuous improvement, and collaboration.
- You’ll be restlessly curious and externally focussed, searching out the latest technology and artificial intelligence tools that let us detect and control Financial Crime better than ever.
- You’ll know the detail of the latest legal and regulatory requirements, with an ability to simplify so people are focussed on the essential and important.
- You can create a strategy, but also change altitude from the 30,000 feet perspective right down to the systems and processes that need to work for strategy to lead to action.
- You’ll be clear that we’re here to make money, but in the right way. This means striking a balance between the bank’s interests, and those of our customers and the society we serve.
- You’ll always bring humanity to your decision making and have a strong ethical compass. This means we do the right thing by the people of Britain and NI and go home knowing we made decisions we’d be happy to explain to our loved ones, and the person we see in the mirror.
At Lloyds Banking Group, purpose matters and we hope it matters for you too. Every day we get up to help the people of Britain charge forward by delivering solutions which enable prosperity, opportunity and sustainable growth. In short we are driven to make finance a force for good.
If this job, who we are, and what we’re looking for chimes with you, we’d love to hear from you!
At Lloyds Banking Group, we're driven by a clear purpose; to help Britain prosper. Across the Group, our colleagues are focused on making a difference to customers, businesses and communities. With us you'll have a key role to play in shaping the financial services of the future, whilst the scale and reach of our Group means you'll have many opportunities to learn, grow and develop.
We keep your data safe. So, we'll only ever ask you to provide confidential or sensitive information once you have formally been invited along to an interview or accepted a verbal offer to join us which is when we run our background checks. We'll always explain what we need and why, with any request coming from a trusted Lloyds Banking Group person.
We're focused on creating a values-led culture and are committed to building a workforce which reflects the diversity of the customers and communities we serve. Together we’re building a truly inclusive workplace where all of our colleagues have the opportunity to make a real difference.
