- Keep our IFRS 9/IFRS 13 policies and procedures up to date, and prepare the disclosures for Group and subsidiary financial statements.
- Work with the Data, Treasury and Credit Risk teams and answer the auditors’ questions.
- Question how we do things today and make our processes simpler and better.
Run the audits of our subsidiaries
- Be the audit controller for several subsidiaries, from start to finish: agree fees and sign-off dates with the auditors, and prepare the financial statements (P&L, balance sheet, equity, cash flow) and disclosures.
- Be the link between the auditors and the business, making sure every department replies on time and the audit is signed off on schedule.
Be the entity controller
- Prepare monthly packs and P&L / balance sheet variance analysis for your entities.
- Spot what looks odd, ask the right questions and challenge the explanations you get.
- IFRS 9/IFRS13 knowledge: provisions, ECL calculations, CVA, DVA and credit risk adjustments. This is the key requirement.
- 5+ years in audit, accounting or financial reporting.
- Hands-on IFRS 9/IFRS 13 experience and an audit background (ideally Big 4) are big pluses.
- A good understanding of how a statutory audit works, and the ability to prepare financial statements, including mapping.
- A project-manager mindset: you keep many people moving towards a deadline and stay on top of things.
- An eye for detail and for the big picture, and the confidence to challenge.
- Advanced Excel and excellent English. Spanish and a professional qualification (ACA, ACCA, CIMA, CPA, ROAC or equivalent) are a plus.
