Job Purpose

This role supports the Head of Financial Reporting and Planning by delivering high quality written / verbal reports and presentations which articulate the Mortgage business to the Mortgage Executive Committee, the Retail Division and the Product MD. Deliverables include monthly reports, deep dives into specific issues and responding to other ad hoc queries.
This role requires a wide range of contacts across the Mortgages business to understand the key financial, commercial and risk drivers of the business to aid in both reporting and forecasting.
The team needs to provide analytical review and challenge to stakeholders on their forecast inputs (and outputs) and the team is well placed to aid decision-making by the senior Executives. This is mainly achieved through preparing insightful decks for each stage of the forecast review process to clearly articulate the movements, implications and next steps for the forecast.
