Job description

Senior Finance Controls Assurance and Business Partner
Glasgow


As a Barclays Senior Finance Controls Assurance and Business Partner, you will manage and provide the full range of control services to the Finance Function to support risk management across the Controls environment. You will be responsible in developing and maintaining relationships with senior colleagues and stakeholders - with a detailed understanding of the Finance controls environment and ability to influence and oversee it.



Barclays is one of the world's largest and most respected financial institutions, with 329 years of success, quality, and innovation behind us. We offer careers that provide endless opportunity – helping millions of individuals and businesses thrive and creating financial and digital solutions that the world now takes for granted.



We are currently in the early stages of implementing a hybrid working environment, which means that many colleagues spend part of their working hours at home and part in the office, depending on the nature of the role they are in. We’re flexible on how this works and it may continue to change and evolve. Depending on your team, typically this means that colleagues spend a minimum of between 20% to 60% of their time in the office, which could be over a week, a month, or a quarter. However, some colleagues may choose to spend more time in the office over a typical period than their role type requires. We also have a flexible working process where, subject to business needs, all colleagues globally can request work patterns to reflect their personal circumstances.


What will you be doing?
• Ensuring control frameworks are implemented and managed effectively across aligned businesses, functions, and horizontals
  • Driving improved and sustainable controls culture through use of data led relevant indicators to ensure Control Forums are insightful and conversations risk focused
  • Monitoring key indictors and providing insights to leadership to oversee their risk profile
  • Leading the annual SOx scoping and Assurance planning exercise, including coordination with KPMG External Audit teams, Business Units leaders and other lines of defence
  • Supporting Assurance delivery including SOx compliance for identified process areas and leading the Design Effectiveness Assessments and Operational Effectiveness testing
  • Deploying knowledge and expertise to assess, predict and mitigate future risks whilst guiding the business, functions, and risks on using the Control Framework
  • Managing and coordinating regulatory inputs to control reporting, briefings and relevant governance fora and act as point of coordination and syndication of Regulatory updates
  • Collaborating with 2nd Line of Defence (i.e., Compliance, Operational Risk) and 3rd Line of Defence (i.e., Barclays Internal Audit) colleagues to input on common areas of interest

What we’re looking for:
• Formal Accounting qualification (ACCA, CIMA, ACA or equivalent) and understanding of ‘minimum standards’ for Assurance, SOx and control issues reporting
  • Ability to influence at senior management level and apply judgement to balance risk versus business interest whilst ensuring compliance to all relevant policies and standards
  • Effective written and oral communication skills, with the ability to present credibly to senior stakeholders
  • Experience of working in or within a First, Second or Third Line of Control team with the ability to demonstrate a risk management mindset within the financial services industry


Skills that will help you in the role:
• Experience with Data Analytics tools and technologies (such as Alteryx, Tableau etc) would be an added advantage
  • Good Excel skills including extensive experience in managing large quantities of data, and preference of candidates with IFRS certification, Certified internal Auditor or equivalent
  • Ability to provide thought leadership through bringing together insight and analysis including external knowledge
  • Extensive working knowledge of operational risk & control processes and practices, including experience in their application across functions


Where will you be working?
Our new state-of-the-art Campus, right in the heart of Glasgow is a hub of creative collaboration. A place where everyone can bring their true selves to work and reach their full potential. Home to 5,000 of our colleagues, our Tradeston campus will support the community in more ways than one - by creating thousands of new career opportunities and celebrating local artists. A short walk from Central Station on the south of the Clyde, it will be a key location for the Barclays business that will deepen our ties with the city and its communities.
