Treasury Consultant - SAS Developer in Swindon

Are you ready to take your SAS expertise to the next level? Join us in a varied role at the heart of Nationwide’s Finance function, where your work will directly influence how we manage Treasury and Financial Reporting. You will be working on the regulatory reporting and implementation of models covering Treasury and Financial Reporting. This is more than just a technical role - it’s your chance to drive innovation, future-proof critical systems, and make a real impact on how we make business decisions.

You’ll be a key player in owning, building and maintaining robust systems and reporting tools that support strategic decision-making across the business. From regulatory reporting to software migration and data governance, your work will help shape the future of our financial landscape. You’ll also gain deep exposure to both technology and risk management, making this a fantastic opportunity for professional growth.

We are happy to consider flexible working approaches to help you perform at your best. The working hours (per week) for this role can be between 28 and 35 hours. At Nationwide, we offer hybrid working wherever possible. More rewarding relationships are supported through our hybrid approach, bringing colleagues together across our UK-wide estate, whilst also supporting generous access to home working. We value our time in the office to solve problems, to learn, and to feel connected. For this job you'll spend at least two days per week, or if part time you'll spend 40% of your working time, based at either our Swindon, Northampton or London office. If you are aligned to our Glasgow hub (as this is your nearest location), there will be a need to regularly connect with colleagues for collaboration events. This is anticipated to be twice a week in Glasgow.

If your application is successful, your hiring manager will provide further details on how this works. Nationwide is committed to the redeployment of our employees impacted by change, as such applications for redeployment candidates will be prioritised in this recruitment process. If you’re a colleague on long-term absence (for example, on parental leave) or a temporary worker, please use your personal email address to submit an application.

Responsibilities

You will be leading the development and enhancement of Finance reporting systems, ensuring accuracy, resilience, and efficiency while acting as a technical lead on high-impact projects, using your SAS expertise to deliver smart, scalable solutions. While collaborating across Finance and Treasury teams to support business growth and transformation, you will work in an Agile environment, contributing to migration and integration projects, and support BAU processes, gaining visibility across the business, with insights into both customer and funding operations. There will be the opportunity to lead and manage senior treasury analysts, setting clear direction, ensuring work is appropriately resourced, and supporting the development of capability across the team.

You enjoy working collaboratively and are always looking for ways to improve and innovate. As a minimum requirement, you will have:

• A background in a numerical or logical field (e.g., Finance, Mathematics, Engineering)
• Well-developed SAS programming skills (Base SAS, Enterprise Guide and DI Studio)
• Familiarity with ETL processes and tools like SQL, VBA, Python, or Qlik

• Say it straight - We are brave in speaking out and saying what we think – we’re honest and direct with good intent, openly sharing diverse perspectives to reach the best conclusions and using language everyone can understand
• Push for better - We don’t settle for mediocrity, we challenge the status quo, taking responsibility for continuous improvement and personal development
• Get it done - We prioritise what will have the greatest impact, we are decisive, and we take accountability for delivering brilliant customer outcomes

You can strengthen your application by showing how our customer first behaviours resonate with you, and where you may have already demonstrated these.
