Senior Risk Manager

  • 32 to 40 hrs

Your role

At Lloyds Bank, we may be part of a large international banking group, but we operate like a close-knit, agile team. With a focused business model and a collaborative culture, we’re big enough to make an impact—and small enough for you to make yours.

We’re looking for a Senior Risk Manager to join our Risk Transformation & Analytics team within the Non-Financial Risk Department. In this role, you’ll help shape how we manage non-financial risks, ensure regulatory compliance, and drive continuous improvement across our control environment.
