Risks come in all shapes and sizes and are ever evolving. All of which makes Risk an exciting place to build a career. What’s more, thanks to the increasing complexities and breadth of activity within Risk, you’ll gain a variety of experience within the Risk function and expand your industry knowledge. You’ll join one of our exciting areas within Risk, such as Market Risk, Credit Risk or Operational Risk among others. This gives you a chance to develop a good understanding of a specific area and its importance to our Risk function.
What to expect
You’ll join one of our exciting areas within Risk, with these areas varying between technical and governance roles across the different types of risk (excluding conduct, reputation and legal risks). This gives you a chance to develop a good understanding of a specific area and its importance to our Risk function. You’ll take on your own projects and responsibilities and work closely with people across all levels of the bank. At the same time, you’ll learn about the broader Risk function and the wider organisation through a number of different initiatives, learning and networking sessions. Your work will make a real difference to your team and prepare you for life as a full-time Risk Analyst.
