As a Finance Regulatory Policy – VP you will become a member of the Global Liquidity Policy team. The successful candidate is expected to be a subject matter expert on Liquidity Regulations, specifically the Liquidity Coverage Ratio and Net Stable Funding Ratio. Prior experience developing and defending liquidity interpretations is strongly preferred but candidates with liquidity reporting experience will also be considered. The role holder will work closely with the Global Liquidity Policy team manager and will be the primary lead for UK and EU related Liquidity interpretations.
The ideal candidate will have an open-minded approach to developing solutions to address regulatory issues with reference to prudential sources. You will have strong communication skills as you will be working with a range of senior stakeholders throughout the business & will possess excellent problem-solving skills.
You may be assessed on key critical skills relevant for success in role, such as risk and controls, change and transformation, business acumen, strategic thinking and digital and technology, as well as job-specific technical skills.”
The main point is to emphasize that this is a Liquidity policy role so the ideal candidate will have prior experience with liquidity related interpretations either at another bank or a regulator. The current language refers to a different role within Reg Policy (Change) which has already been filled and is no longer open. Regarding Lucy, her expectation was that she was applying for the Change role and does not have any prior liquidity experience. For a different policy role I think she would be a good candidate, but given her lack of direct liquidity experience we would not be moving forward.
