This role designs, delivers and continually improves technical and regulatory learning that supports the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) and Financial Market Infrastructure Directorate (FMID).

As the UK’s central bank, the quality of learning provided directly supports regulatory effectiveness and contributes to the Bank’s wider mission to maintain financial stability, making this role both meaningful and impactful. It is a rare opportunity to contribute to learning that truly matters, in a place unlike any other.

This role sits within the Technical Training team, which supports PRA and FMID colleagues in building the technical skills and knowledge required to be competent and compliant in role. The work directly supports the PRA’s objective to ensure the safety and soundness of firms and the avoidance of disorderly failure, and the FMID’s role in maintaining the resilience of financial market infrastructure.

The L&OD team is part of the Organisational Capability & Effectiveness (OC&E) function, which equips the Bank with the knowledge and culture needed for high performance. OC&E is part of the People Strategy & Insights (PS&I) division in the People Directorate, which attracts, develops, supports, and retains the people the Bank needs to fulfil its mission.
