The Bank Change Director will be responsible for defining, driving, and executing enterprise-wide transformation portfolios programs and projects. This role requires a strategic leader who understands digital payments banking, fintech innovation, and regulatory landscapes. The ideal candidate will have a strong track record of delivering complex change in fast-paced environments.

Bank of London is in (re) start- up mode with a lot to do as we enter a significant period of growth. To support this we are seeking a hands on leader to manage the breadth of a Bank wide portfolio of change whilst having the ability to go deep into specific projects and lead from the front.

Our change can be put into 3 key portfolios of focus – (1)The design and delivery of banking new products and services in line with our growth ambitions, (2) The strengthening of our risk management and controls to become a very strong proposition for our regulators and clients, (3) The modernisation of the bank as an organisation, delivering new standards of performance with a heavy push towards automation, global capabilities (possibly through M&A activity) and best in class polices, process and operations.
