Hello, we’re Starling. We built a new kind of bank because we knew technology had the power to help people save, spend and manage their money in a new and transformative way. We’re a fully licensed UK bank with the culture and spirit of a fast-moving, disruptive tech company. We’re a bank, but better: fairer, easier to use and designed to demystify money for everyone. We employ more than 3,500 people across our London, Southampton, Cardiff and Manchester offices.
To support the Bank’s growth and regulatory changes we are looking for a new analyst within the Regulatory Reporting team. The team is London based and comprises 9 individuals covering reporting, regulatory change and regulatory assurance. The regulatory reporting in scope includes capital adequacy, liquidity, leverage, large exposures and Pillar 3 disclosures. As a small team the activities are shared across the team and the ability to work flexibly on different reports over time, develop processes and work on various internal and external changes is key to the role. The specific role has responsibility for some reporting but also requires reporting improvement mindset and skills. Strengthening the team's capability through technology enabled process change is a key aim of the team.
Responsibilities:
- Build an experience across different prudential reporting to develop knowledge and understanding of prudential rules and application. The role will start with a liquidity focus.
- Support Regulatory Reporting activities, with an aim of taking ownership for specific reports end to end.
- Support development of the reporting process and help drive improvements to the wider processes through process automation, simplification and enhancement.
- Engage with stakeholders to optimise information provided to the team, with a view to efficiency and control improvements. Drive automated data capture through core data platforms where possible.
- Create and present reporting MI to support management review, approval and submission of information.
- Consider risks and controls and discuss with managers as appropriate.
- Support wider regulatory related activity, for example prudential ratio forecasts as required.
- Support internal change from a regulatory perspective, for example assessment of the liquidity impacts of new retail products.
- Support external regulatory changes as they arise, such as Basel 3.1.
Requirements
- Understanding of prudential regulation concepts
- Strong communication - written via monthly MI and verbal
- Problem solving mindset
- Strong analytics capability / data literate with experience of AI
- Experience of software including Excel, Google to support data analysis
- Ability to understand and implement risk and control processes

What We Do
Hello, we’re Starling. Banking was broken – so we decided to fix it. The vision? Fast technology, fair service and honest values. All at the tap of a phone, all the time. We built Britain’s first digital bank. One hard-won banking licence later, we set about giving people a new way to spend, save and manage their money (and take better care of the planet, too). We’re changing banking for good. Back then, we were obsessed with unravelling the knotty world of finance and solving people’s problems rather than selling them stuff. We still are. Since then, we’ve grown. A lot. Over three million accounts (and four account types!). A team of thousands. Headquartered in London with offices in Cardiff, Dublin, Manchester and Southampton. Five years voted Which? Recommended Provider and Britain's Best Banking Brand. Still zero branches. Our culture is open, inclusive and focused on solving real customer problems, with an emphasis on doing the right thing, even when it’s not always the easy thing. From our approach to working together and sustainability to how we build our products, our decisions need to make the world – and Starling – a better place to be. Everyone at Starling is essential to our mission, which is really quite simple: to solve our customer’s problems – and build the best bank in the world! And now we're providing Starling to other banks, via a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) proposition through our subsidiary Engine, using the proprietary technology platform that it uses to power our own bank.
