Get AI-powered advice on this job and more exclusive features. You know that job where you quietly validate models in a dusty corner of the risk department?
This is leading a team that challenges the models that decide who gets credit, whos flagged as fraud, and how millions in provisions are set aside. Leading the Model Risk and Validation function in a fast-paced financial environment.
Building frameworks that regulators respect and internal teams can actually follow.
Validating complex models - credit risk, fraud, IFRS9 - all the fun stuff.
Digging into assumptions, code, data, and logic. Building a team of people who know how to challenge without being obnoxious.
Staying just ahead of regulatory changes, without making them your entire personality.
Not just an intern and a weekly stand-up.
~7+ years deep in model risk, validation, or building the things yourself. Ideally in the Financial Services sector.
~ Python. SQL. Bonus points if youve wrestled with messy production code.
~ A proper degree in something terrifying would be great - stats, maths, data science, whatever.
