It's a purpose that drives everything we do. And you can play your part too – join our team as a Balance Sheet Scenarios Manager.
How you'll make a difference
You'll help deliver robust balance sheet, profit and loss, and capital forecasts across business and regulatory scenarios. You'll interpret complex model outputs, develop assumptions and turn the results into clear commercial insight—helping senior colleagues understand performance drivers, risks, opportunities and the actions we could take. Alongside high-quality forecasting and analysis, you'll help improve our planning, reporting and data capabilities and support the team as new tools, automation and AI become part of how we work.

- Prepare forecast assumptions and support modelling through QRM, including ICAAP, RRP, IFRS 9, Corporate Plan sensitivities and forward stress testing.
- Compare scenario outcomes with the appropriate base position and explain the key financial and commercial drivers.
- Produce clear written analysis that highlights risks, opportunities and areas for management focus.
- Support and improve reporting, controls and planning capabilities across Excel, Power Query, Power BI and our modern data platform.
- Share your knowledge, coach colleagues and deputise for the Balance Sheet Scenarios Lead when needed.
What will you bring to the role?
- Significant experience in financial services and a strong understanding of how a building society's balance sheet works.
- Extensive financial modelling experience, including scenario modelling, stress testing and sensitivity analysis.
- The ability to challenge assumptions and explain technical outputs clearly to senior and non-finance audiences.
- Strong analytical, data and reconciliation skills, with close attention to detail and a well-developed control mindset.
- Confident stakeholder management, business partnering and communication skills.
- A professional accountancy qualification or equivalent.
And in return, you'll get the best from us:
- Hybrid working – 2 days per week in the office
- Annual bonus of up to 12%
- Matched pension contributions up to 10%
- 26 days holiday, plus bank holidays and holiday purchase scheme
