Strengthening social cohesion and building thriving communities in Europe, we drive inclusive growth, bolster economic sustainability - and create exceptional careers.

In this key position, you will oversee the development of IFRS within the Bank and advise colleagues on accounting principles and best practice. We will look to you to find technical solutions to some complex issues whilst improving management information and reporting, devising tests for new banking products, and developing monitoring controls and tools, so every day will bring difference challenges. In particular, you will closely support the Head of Unit in developing our practices and procedures and will proactively review accounts and mitigate risks, making you central to our operations.
