The Data Office is on an exciting journey to enhance the quality, control, and accessibility of risk data so business and risk partners can make timely, well-informed decisions. We seek a candidate with deep financial risk domain expertise and a strong understanding of how risk is measured and reported.

This is not a technical or analytics role. The selected candidate will act as a business subject matter expert in financial risk data (i.e., credit risk, liquidity risk, market risk and/or interest rate risk), while partnering with risk stakeholders to improve the clarity, quality and controls on the data.

This role is expected to act as the team‑lead or manager for a small team (2-6 individuals).

• Define and maintain clear business definitions, usage rules, and ownership for the data

• Ensure data reflects the true business intent and operating reality of financial risk processes across one or more of the following domains: credit risk, liquidity risk, market risk, and/or interest rate risk

• Identify where process gaps, manual workarounds, or inconsistent practices lead to data quality issues

• Help prioritize and resolve data issues

• Support data quality monitoring, reconciliations, root‑cause analysis, and issue remediation efforts

• Increase transparency into how credit risk, liquidity risk, interest rate risk, and market risk data is sourced, defined and used across the organization

• Lead and develop a team of analysts; coach performance, and ensure consistent execution of data governance processes

• 7+ years of experience in financial risk roles (credit risk, liquidity risk, market risk and/or interest rate risk) within a bank

• Ability to explain complex risk concepts to both risk and non‑risk audiences

• Strong collaboration, influence, and problem‑solving skills

• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills

• Detail‑oriented with a strong sense of accountability

• Exposure to risk data quality, reconciliations, process improvement, or control environments (formal or informal)

• Demonstrated ability to work across teams and drive change without direct authority

• Curiosity and passion for improving how data is managed and used

• Team‑lead or people management experience preferred

• Not a quantitative model development role (no expectation to build or validate risk models)

• Not a trading role; not responsible for taking market positions

• No coding, modeling, or system development responsibilities

• No requirement for formal data management experience

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a closely‑related discipline, or an equivalent combination of formal education and experience
