Company Description 

We’re Together. For over 50 years, we’ve helped thousands of people, businesses and professionals unlock their property ambitions with our common-sense approach to mortgages and secured loans.

We take the time to understand our customers and our door is always open, so we can often help when other lenders can’t or won’t. Based in Cheadle, Cheshire, our 750 colleagues help our customers throughout the UK, backed by the power of a £7 billion loan book. 

As a Treasury Risk and Control Manager you will be responsible for operating and continuously enhancing the risk management framework within Group Treasury. You will work collaboratively across the wider Treasury function, supporting both the Capital Markets and Operations teams.

This is a key role in identifying, assessing, and managing operational risk within Group Treasury, ensuring robust governance and compliance with the Group’s Enterprise Risk Management Framework.

As a Treasury Risk and Control Manager we are looking for someone to: 

• Implement and enhance the 1B Line Risk Framework to support the growing complexity of the business.
• Ensure adherence to the Group’s Enterprise Risk Management Framework, including managing Treasury risk and control self-assessments.
• Support the team with document processes and controls, including mapping and maintaining procedure documentation.
• Perform control testing, identify operational control gaps, and propose enhancements to key stakeholders.
• Coordinate risk awareness programmes within Group Treasury to strengthen understanding of conduct excellence and risk management.
• Conduct and coordinate deep-dive risk reviews, control/compliance assessments, and design action plans to mitigate residual risks.
• Prepare monthly risk reports and dashboards for accurate and consistent risk reporting across the function.
• Manage incident escalation to Group Risk and Group Internal Audit and maintain regular liaison with these functions.
• Support Treasury teams during second-line assurance activities, internal audits, and external audits.
• Collaborate with central 1B and wider business teams on operational risk incident analysis and enhancement of operational risk controls.

Essential:

• Strong understanding of risk management frameworks and operational risk principles.
• Experience in controls testing, risk assessments, and process documentation.
• Understanding of mortgage lending and asset-backed securitisation.
• Ability to proactively assess risks and evaluate their impact on the Treasury function.
• Ability to work collaboratively across multiple teams and influence stakeholders.
• Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills.
• Proactive mindset with a focus on continuous improvement
• Excellent interpersonal skills with the ability to constructively challenge at all levels.
• Strong problem-solving, analytical, and influencing skills.

Desirable:

• Proven experience within financial services, ideally in a Treasury or Capital Markets function (this is not a must).
• A relevant professional qualification in finance or risk management.
• Working knowledge of securitisation and debt capital markets.
• Experience in delivering or supporting large-scale transformation programmes.

If you feel you have some of the skills mentioned above, but not all, please do still apply and we would be happy to have a further discussion with you in regards to your suitability for the role.
