Trust unlocks our greatest potential.

What if we could make banking infrastructure faster, safer, more reliable, and easier to access for all? Here is where you can think radically and responsibly to find the best solution.

For decades, the clearing of payments remained unchanged and unchallenged. We asked, what if there was a better way? What if we could make banking infrastructure faster, safer, more reliable, and easier to access for all? Here is where you can think radically and responsibly to find the best solution.
What happens when you know you’re inherently trusted? Trust creates safety. Safety encourages you to be brave, to challenge, to fail, to try new things and to execute. At ClearBank everything revolves around trust. We’re not expected to earn it, but we are expected not to break it. We’re trusted to own it. To solve issues in the moment. To know a good risk when we see one, and the judgement to know that ‘can’ doesn’t always mean you ‘should’.
What You Can Expect
ClearBank is a place where you can do things differently and challenge the status quo. We will give you a high level of autonomy and transparency, and we trust you to make the right decisions for the bank.
If that excites you, how about joining our Operational Resilience team as an OCIR & Operational Resilience Specialist? Reporting to the Head of Business Continuity and Operational Resilience you will be working closely with our Finance, Innovation and Operations teams ensuring that we successfully measure our critical processes. You’ll be contributing to the delivery and ongoing implementation of OCIR, deepening knowledge, and providing support across the business, whilst improving resilience outcomes by offering analysis and insight. You’ll have the opportunity to drive process improvements, automation, and best practice to deliver a better service to the business and customers.
Your Role Includes

• Supporting the Head of Business Continuity and Resilience in embedding the OCIR strategy and roadmap for ClearBank
• Delivering and maintaining the service catalogue and asset list by working across the business to ensure data is in line with regulatory expectations
• Ensure that OCIR aligned with operational resilience is embedded within the Bank, measured, and reported through governance in order to provide our ExCo and the Board with sufficient oversight and assurance
• Perform ongoing assessment of preparedness for resolution, e.g. by conducting regular reviews of OCIR requirements against the present position
• Ensure resolution-resilient features are maintained for all intra-group or third-party contracts, underpinning the relevant services
• Constantly drive improvements in the process and resilience outcomes for the bank, it’s customers and other stakeholders
• Undertaking “dry run” simulations, (exercises simulating a resolution case and testing access to the information needed in an emergency situation)

What You’ll Bring
To excel in this role, you’ll also need:

• Proven track record of helping successfully running OCIR and operational resilience programs within an organisation, including maintaining appropriate records to meet regulatory requirements
• In depth experience of OCIR and operational resilience, knowledge of best practice and its application operationally for optimal outcomes
• Knowledge of OCIR and operational resilience regulations and the key pillars and processes that create good outcomes
• A demonstrated ability to manage an OCIR system that develops inline to support a growing organisation
• Experience of creating and executing resilience-based scenario testing
• Experience of the financial services industry and the related regulations and frameworks that a regulated entity like ClearBank operate within
• Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills with the ability to work with a range of stakeholders

Regretfully we are not able to sponsor applicants for immigration purposes at the current time.
What makes a great ClearBank team member? Does this sound like you?

• You focus on solutions and positive outcomes, thinking radically and responsibly to find the best result for our customers, your colleagues and the bank;
• You actively seek feedback from others to drive your growth and development, always assuming positive intent from others and develop strong, trusting relationships you’re your colleagues and customers: you really, genuinely care;
• You always strive for the highest quality, but you know that done is better than perfect; you welcome a challenge knowing that they learn as you go and iterate;
• ‘I’ before ’we’, isn’t in your vocabulary
