We need a talented Analytics Director to build and own our measurement frameworks, infrastructure, and reporting, ensuring audit-ready reporting and shared 1st/2nd line data governance.

• Partner with Data/Engineering to align instrumentation and data models with risk monitoring needs, ensuring reliable pipelines with clear data lineage.

• Drive insight-to-action loops, quantifying trade-offs between risk reduction, customer impact, and cost.

• Establish shared governance cadences (metric councils, steering groups) and foster 1st/2nd line collaboration to prevent drift across lines of defence.

• Provide analytics leadership for Financial, Fincrime, Ops, Resilience, and Reg stakeholders.

Who you are:

• Track record building durable analytics foundations (pipelines, metric layers, monitoring/quality controls, operating rhythms).

• High bar for metric integrity, clarity of narrative, and decision-making discipline.

Desirable:

• Experience with operational resilience and/or technology reliability analytics (incidents, availability, recovery metrics).
