A leading international bank is building out a brand-new payments audit portfolio, and is looking for a senior technology leader to own it end to end. This is a rare chance to step out of delivery and into assurance while staying close to the technology you know best — shaping how one of the world's major banks assures its payments estate, with a clear path to Managing Director for the right person.
It suits a payments technology practitioner — someone who has built or run payments platforms and now wants the broader remit, the seniority and the visibility that come with owning a portfolio. Domain depth leads here; the assurance craft can be learned.
Some of the key responsibilities will include:
Own end-to-end audit coverage for payments technology from day one, shaping the portfolio as it grows.
Bring real technical challenge and an independent voice to how payments technology risk is understood across the bank.
Report on payments technology controls and risk themes to senior stakeholders, translating technical risk into decisions.
Build and lead your own team , and stand as a senior leader and mentor across the wider floor.
Stay ahead of emerging risk across payments modernisation and, increasingly, digital assets.
To be eligible for this role you will require:
15+ years implementing or managing payments technology — genuinely hands-on, not oversight only.
An appetite to move into a risk and control environment (first, second or third line all welcome).
Depth in one or more payment types — real-time, cross-border or market payments — with broad understanding across the rest.
Proven senior director-level leadership — an established leader ready to build, not a first-time director.
Exposure to digital assets a genuine advantage as the business expands.
