Job description

Finance Controls Assurance and Business Partner
London


As a Barclays Finance Controls Assurance and Business Partner, you will be managing and providing the full range of control services to the Finance Function to support risk management across the Controls environment. 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, will be part of your role.



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. Please discuss the detail of the working pattern options for the role with the hiring manager.

  • Reviewing and monitoring progress of remediation plans for SOx and Assurance related issues, including reporting to leadership
  • 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. This includes analytics covering root cause analysis of issues and thematic trends
  • Coordinating regulatory inputs to control reporting, briefings and relevant governance fora and act as point of coordination and syndication of Regulatory updates

What we’re looking for:
• Effective written and oral communication skills, with the ability to present credibly to senior stakeholders
  • Knowledge of operational risk & control processes and practices, including experience in their application across functions with ability to demonstrate a risk management mindset
  • Good understanding of SOx requirements and the COSO framework and its application to internal controls over financial reporting
  • Experience in Product Control/Financial Control/Regulatory reporting and/or Auditing, preferably in Financial Services
  • Experienced in identifying, documenting, and testing controls

Skills that will help you in the role:
• Excellent Excel skills including extensive experience in managing large quantities of data, pivots, formulas, Vlookup
  • Experience with Data Analytics tools and technologies (such as Alteryx, Tableau etc) would be an added advantage
  • Formal Accounting qualification (ACCA, CIMA, ACA or equivalent)
  • Ability to understand, implement and drive improvements to a risk & control framework

Where will you be working?
