We're looking for an experienced Project Manager to support a programme of work within Credit Risk, reporting to the Senior Project Manager. You'll coordinate project planning, governance, risks, dependencies and stakeholder engagement, working across business and technology teams to turn agreed outcomes into clear, achievable delivery plans. You'll use Jira to maintain transparency, track progress and support effective decision-making. This role requires strong delivery discipline, confident stakeholder management and a good technical understanding of credit risk systems, data flows and processes.

You'll support the Senior Project Manager in the successful delivery of the Credit Risk programme, helping to translate strategic objectives into clear plans, milestones and deliverables. Working closely with both business and technical teams, you'll coordinate activity across the programme, manage risks, issues and dependencies, and ensure delivery information is accurately maintained in Jira.

You'll play a key role in supporting project and programme governance, preparing concise updates, decision papers and management information for forums and stakeholders. Building strong relationships across the organisation, you'll work with colleagues at all levels to resolve blockers, drive progress and keep delivery on track.

Using your understanding of credit risk systems, processes and controls, you'll help shape safe and effective change, challenging assumptions where appropriate and ensuring both business and technical impacts are fully understood and considered throughout delivery.

About you

Our customer first behaviours put customers and members at the heart of how we work together. They are the set of behaviours that every colleague needs to display, in every role:

• Feel what customers feel - We step into our customers' shoes, using their feedback and insights to empathise with them and to understand their needs, so that every decision we make starts and finishes with our customers in mind

• Say it straight - We are brave in speaking out and saying what we think - we're honest and direct with good intent, openly sharing diverse perspectives to reach the best conclusions and using language everyone can understand

• Push for better - We don't settle for mediocrity, we challenge the status quo, taking responsibility for continuous improvement and personal development

• Get it done - We prioritise what will have the greatest impact, we are decisive, and we take accountability for delivering brilliant customer outcomes

You can strengthen your application by showing how our customer first behaviours resonate with you, and where you may have already demonstrated these.
