Being part of HSBC in France, you’ll help evolve and grow our business within HBCE Finance, supporting a strategic uplift of the prudential regulatory reporting control environment across Europe (IRR program, 2024–27).

• Work closely with, influence and challenge teams including Regulatory Reporting, Wholesale Credit, Financial Control, and partners such as Data Architecture Office and PRA Workstreams.
• Manage stakeholders within IRR and cross-functionally (including DBS and Risk) to ensure objectives are met and outcomes are robust and sustainable.
• Partner with Global Businesses to ensure prioritised data issues are identified, agreed, understood and remediated.

• Prepare clear and concise briefing papers/materials for governance as required (including HCIB Audit Committee, HBCE Regulatory Reporting Governance Forum, HBCE Finance Transformation & Change Steering Committee, HBCE Finance RCMM).
• Drive issue management and escalation.
• Direct target operating model work to embed improvements sustainably into BAU and promote a culture of control awareness and best practice.

• Significant accounting and/or regulatory reporting experience, particularly in a reporting context and across prudential regulatory reporting.
• Cross-functional knowledge and experience, with an understanding of the Finance operating model at Group, Business and Country levels.
• Demonstrable track record delivering complex/technical change efficiently and effectively (Finance and/or Risk).
• Strong stakeholder management skills, with experience building relationships across seniority levels and geographies.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to articulate complex information clearly and tailor messages to the audience.
• Strong analytical/problem-solving skills and the ability to shape and drive outcomes strategically.
