Gain an unparalleled insight into global and UK banking
Protecting the stability of the UK’s financial system is a vital job – and you can help us do it. Through the Prudential Regulation Authority, we promote the safety and soundness of over 1,700 financial firms operating in the UK. We help identify and mitigate potential risks before they can have an adverse effect on the market and, of course, the public.
The challenge
You’ll join a specialist directorate, focusing on international banks or domestic banks, building societies and credit unions. Either way, you’ll analyse everything from business models through to capital and liquidity data – identifying risks and suggesting steps that need to be taken. You’ll undertake essential and high-profile work. You’ll build relationships at a senior level, and you’ll gain a unique insight into the financial sector and its key issues.

The requirements
Financial experience isn’t essential as we offer a comprehensive training programme. Sound judgment and an analytical mindset are what matter here, so your background could be in anything from education or audit, to research or science. You must be comfortable handling, interpreting, and drawing conclusions from complex data. The ability to build relationships with, and present your findings to senior stakeholders is important too.
