Controls Senior Finance Manager

Glasgow


As a Barclays Controls Senior Finance Manager, you will be responsible for managing and providing the full range of control services to the Finance Function to support risk management across the Controls environment.

You will have the opportunity to develop and maintain relationships with senior colleagues and stakeholders, while having a detailed understanding of the Finance controls environment and the ability to influence and oversee it.


Barclays is one of the world's largest and most respected financial institutions, established in 1690, with a legacy of success, quality, and innovation.

We offer careers that provide endless opportunity - helping millions of individuals and businesses thrive and creating financial and digital solutions that the world now takes for granted.


At Barclays, we offer a hybrid working experience that blends the positives of working alongside colleagues at our onsite locations, together with working from home.

We have a structured approach where colleagues work at an onsite location on fixed, 'anchor', days of the week, for a minimum of two days a week or more, as set by the business area (or nearest equivalent if working part-time hours).

Please discuss the working pattern requirements for the role you are applying for with the hiring manager.

Please note that as we continue to embed our hybrid working environment, we remain in a test and learn phase, which means that working arrangements may be subject to change on reasonable notice to ensure we meet the needs of our business.


What will you be doing?

  • Leading and supporting the design of a strategic approach to define the annual scoping exercise and methodology for External Financial Regulatory Reporting Risk
  • Supporting Assurance delivery for identified processes areas under External Financial Regulatory Reporting and providing leadership throughout Design Effectiveness Assessments
  • Ensuring control frameworks are implemented and managed effectively across aligned businesses, functions and horizontals
  • Driving improved and sustainable controls culture through use of data led relevant indicators to ensure Control Forums are insightful and conversations risk focused
  • Monitoring key indictors and provide insights to leadership to oversee their risk profile, this includes analytics covering root cause analysis of issues and thematic trends
  • Being responsible for driving usage of Data Analytics to ensure enhanced testing across relevant risk parameters
  • Deploying knowledge and expertise to assess, predict and mitigate future risks whilst guiding the business on using the Control Framework in a way to safely grow and innovate
  • Managing and coordinating regulatory inputs to control reporting, briefings and relevant governance and acting as point of coordination and syndication of Regulatory updates

What we're looking for:

  • Great ability to influence at senior management level and apply judgement to balance risk versus business interest whilst ensuring compliance to all relevant policies and standards
  • Effective written and oral communication skills, with the ability to present credibly to senior stakeholders
  • Experience of working in or within a First, Second or Third Line of Control team, with the ability to demonstrate a risk management mindset within the financial services industry
  • Understanding of 'minimum standards' for Assurance, SOx and control issues reporting, plus a formal Accounting Qualification (ACCA, CIMA, ACA or equivalent)

Skills that will help you in the role:

  • Experience with Data Analytics tools and technologies (such as Alteryx, Tableau etc) would be an added advantage
  • Excellent Excel skills including extensive experience in managing large quantities of data, pivots, formulas, V-lookup
  • Extensive working knowledge of operational risk & control processes and practices, including experience in their application across functions
  • Though not mandatory, preference would be given to candidates with IFRS certification, Certified internal Auditor or equivalent

Where will you be working?
Our new state-of-the-art Campus, right in the heart of Glasgow is a hub of creative collaboration. A place where everyone can bring their true selves to work and reach their full potential.

Home to 5,000 of our colleagues, our Tradeston campus will support the community in more ways than one - by creating thousands of new career opportunities and celebrating local artists.

A short walk from Central Station on the south of the Clyde, it will be a key location for the Barclays business that will deepen our ties with the city and its communities.
