About the role

Yorkshire Building Society are looking to employ an experienced Financial Modelling Manager on a fixed term contract basis. You will support the Society with deliverables relating to financial forecasting and stress testing, therefore having a strong understanding of a building societies balance sheet is critical to this role.

The role would suit someone who has experience using financial planning and analysis software to analyse, manage and report on the business performance, and how to successfully configure it to be usable now and in the future. As a leader, you will be expected to bring your insight to current developments and use it to guide finance colleagues in their deliverables.

About you:

  • Extensive experience of a building society balance sheet and how it responds to different risk factors, such as changing economic environments.

  • Extensive experience of financial modelling and how to optimise design to produce a robust balance sheet and risk metrics.

  • Excellent stakeholder management and influencing skills, with the ability to manage and resolve competing/conflicting priorities.

  • You’ll be someone who is keen to help others learn and develop and provide thought leadership to encourage best practice in others.

Our Head Office teams are known as Enabling Functions. They're open, innovative, collaborative and always focused on doing what’s right.

And they’re here to support our colleagues by providing a range of high quality, head office services, including risk, HR, finance and marketing. Whatever team you join, you’ll discover that it’s a welcoming, supportive and inclusive place to be, with all the flexibility you need to make work a rewarding part of your life.

Our ways of working and flexibility

We know there’s no single right way of working that fits everyone. That’s why we’re not trying to find one. Instead, we’re doing everything we can to make sure that when we’re working flexibly, together and apart, we’re working at our best. We help our colleagues get the most out of work, and take care of themselves, wherever they’re working.

We offer a range of flexible working options without unsocial hours, which can help you find a healthy work-life balance. Whether it’s finishing early for an appointment or fitting your studies and hobbies in around your working hours, we can help make it work for you. We’re happy to talk flexible working and you can reach out to us anytime during the recruitment process to discuss this.
