Senior Regulatory Reporting Manager – Impairment, Capital & Stress Testing


πŸ“ Edinburgh (Hybrid – 3 days in office)

πŸ’· Β£68,000 – Β£102,000 + bonus & strong benefits

🏦 Major UK retail bank (part of a Tier-1 banking group)


Are you a senior credit risk professional who enjoys turning complex risk numbers into clear insight and real decisions?


Our client is hiring a Senior Regulatory Reporting Manager to play a key role in how a major UK retail bank forecasts, explains and manages its credit risk, impairments and capital position β€” working closely with Group Risk colleagues in a Tier-1 banking environment.

 

This is a senior, hands-on risk role with real visibility, influence and scope to shape how things are done.

 

What you’ll be doing:

  • Owning impairment and capital forecasting (IFRS9 & RWAs)
  • Leading stress testing activity for internal planning and regulatory submissions
  • Analysing portfolio performance and drivers β€” explaining why numbers move
  • Challenging model outputs and assumptions (rather than building models day-to-day)
  • Presenting clear, confident insights to senior risk and business stakeholders
  • Leading improvement projects across impairment, capital and risk analytics
  • Acting as a key interface between the retail bank and Group Risk teams

What we’re looking for:

 

You’ll likely come from a banking or consulting background, with experience across:

  • Credit risk, impairment or capital management
  • Stress testing and/or RWA calculations
  • Working in highly regulated environments
  • Translating complex analysis into practical, senior-level insight

You don’t need to tick every box, but experience with IFRS9, CRD IV, retail credit portfolios, and tools such as SQL, SAS or Python would be a strong plus.

 

Why this role stands out:

  • Senior role with real influence, not just reporting
  • Strong exposure to Group-level risk decision-making
  • Hybrid working with a stable Edinburgh base
  • Excellent long-term career progression within a major UK bank
  • Competitive salary, bonus, pension and private healthcare
