This role works closely with the wider European team and reporting straight into senior leadership, and the Board.

You'll be:
- Chairing reviews of sustainable finance deals and flagging greenwashing risk before it becomes a problem
- Leading major regulatory programmes on climate risk and disclosure
- Advising Risk, Compliance and Marketing on sustainability decisions
- Reporting directly to senior leadership and the Board
You'll need:
- Senior sustainable finance / ESG experience at a bank, regulator, or similar organisation

- A track record of influencing senior stakeholders and holding your ground
Most "sustainability" roles in banking are about writing the report. This one's about making sure what's in it is actually true! This opportunity offers Hybrid working, a strong benefits package, and genuine influence over a growing part of the bank's strategy.
