Treasury Analyst – Capital Reporting And Forecasting

This is a varied role working at the heart of Nationwide’s Treasury reporting function. Working as part of the Capital Reporting and Forecasting team you will be responsible for the creation, distribution, and administration of accurate, timely capital related reports primarily for regulatory or risk management purposes. In addition, you may get involved in forecasting the Society’s capital position to ensure the Society will meet regulatory capital requirements in future and remain financially strong.

At Nationwide we offer hybrid working wherever possible. More rewarding relationships are supported through our hybrid approach, bringing colleagues together across our UK wide estate, whilst also supporting generous access to home working. We value our time in the office to solve problems, to learn, and to feel connected.

For this job you'll spend at least two days per week, or if part time you'll spend 40% of your working time, at one of our offices in Swindon or London

If your application is successful, your hiring manager will provide further details on how this works. You can also find out more about our approach to hybrid working here.

If we receive a high volume of relevant applications, we may close the advert earlier than the advertised date, so please apply as soon as you can.

What you’ll be doing

The team is responsible for the Society’s Capital Reporting which can lead to key decisions that impact Nationwide’s future. These reports allow senior leadership to ensure Nationwide has sufficient capital to meet board and regulatory requirements and thus are heavily scrutinised. The outputs from the team are more important than ever, in an ever changing regulatory and economic environment, driving internal and external exposure and responsibility.

You will have the opportunity to assist with all these reporting processes, as your capability develops with initial focus on either regular periodical reporting or forecasting and stress testing processes. The role also has the potential for exposure to the wider Treasury reporting function, which includes liquidity, market risk and credit reporting.

You’ll need to develop and maintain strong relationships with our business partners across the organisation, and particularly the finance and risk teams supporting Treasury.

A lasting career path is available for those who enjoy reporting, are willing to learn the complex subject matter and can take the initiative to develop themselves alongside the support they will receive from other team members.

About you

This role would be ideal for someone who is keen to learn something new and enjoys using excel / tooling skills to run processes and build new reports. There is the option to learn SAS / Power BI to help meet future strategic reporting objectives, specifically continuing to make our processes as efficient but as controlled and robust as possible.

As a minimum you’ll have:

• Strong analytical abilities and a proven track record of delivering to a high standard, on time.
• Some experience of Reporting and Forecasting, ideally in a banking or treasury environment.
• Excellent excel skills, ideally including Lookups, SumIfs, Index/Match and charting skills.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills

It would be nice if you had:

• basic regulatory capital knowledge (see Basel III / PRA Rulebook regulations)
• A degree or accounting/treasury professional qualification
• VBA, Power BI, SAS or coding experience

Our Customer First behaviours are all about putting customers and members at the heart of how we work together. You can strengthen your application by showing the behaviours that resonate with you, and how you might have already demonstrated these.

• Push for better - This is about aiming high and constantly looking for better in how we work together and serve our customers and members.
• Get it done - This is about prioritising what will have the greatest impact, being decisive and taking accountability for delivering on the end-to-end outcome.

What makes us different

Nationwide is the world’s largest building society. With over 15 million customers, we have a relationship with almost a quarter of the UK’s population. We’ve got the scale to compete with the big banks, but we’re not a bank.

As a building society, we’re owned by our members – that’s our customers who have their current account, mortgage or savings with us. It means we can do things differently to deliver our Purpose – Banking – but fairer, more rewarding, and for the good of society.

When you work at Nationwide, you can experience that difference for yourself. You’ll be part of a high-performing, purpose-driven organisation that offers rewarding career experiences and a highly competitive range of benefits to match. You’ll also be joining us at an important time as we seek to reach more and more people in the UK. We want everyone in the UK to know that they don’t have to bank with a bank. They can choose a modern mutual instead.
