As a Regulatory Finding Manager (Non-Financial Risk Specialist) in the Regulatory Finding Management team, you will be responsible for shaping and driving the strategic direction of regulatory finding management across the bank. You will act as a trusted advisor to senior stakeholders, influence decision-making processes, and ensure ABN AMRO is equipped to address regulatory findings at a strategic level.

This role focuses on maintaining oversight, monitoring progress, and ensuring quality assurance in closing findings. Additionally, this role provides expert advisory on findings closure. The role will conduct holistic root cause and impact analyses across processes and products, to address broader issues pro-actively as to minimise and prevent the occurrence of regulatory findings across the bank.

As a Regulatory Finding Manager (Non-Financial Risk Specialist) in the Regulatory Finding Management team, your role is structured around three key priorities:

1. Finding Management:

• Maintaining oversight of open regulatory findings and ensuring timely assignment to appropriate Finding Owners.
• Assisting with the coordination of responses to regulatory findings across stakeholders and ensuring proper documentation.
• Monitoring the implementation status of action plans and flagging delays or issues to relevant stakeholders.
• Contributing to reporting on the status of open findings, ensuring data accuracy and action-based insights.
• Supporting the coordination of Internal Model Investigations (IMIs) and On-Site Inspections (OSIs) and updating the OSI playbook as needed.

2. Root Cause Support:

• Supporting the analysis of regulatory findings to identify contributing factors and areas for improvement.
• Assisting with impact assessments and collaborating with team members to propose solutions for systemic risks.

3. Quality Assurance:

• Reviewing proposed action plans to ensure completeness and adherence to internal policies.
• Supporting the administrative closure of findings, including final documentation and process validation.
• Assisting with the standardisation of processes, documents, and tooling to improve efficiency and consistency.

The Regulatory Risk & Transformation (RR&T) department is a new function established to execute the mandate of the Regulatory Committee, divided into the following four teams/topics:

• Regulatory Supervisory Relations
• Regulatory Change Management
• Regulatory Findings Management
• Regulatory Risk Oversight

Regulatory Findings Management is one of the four key teams within RR&T, directly contributing to the department’s mission to strengthen the bank’s regulatory compliance framework and foster a proactive approach to managing regulatory risks.

The teams will need to collaborate closely on many topics and may need to form ad-hoc task forces to deal with certain priority issues.
