You will join the Compliance & Internal Audit Analytics team who will develop and own the reporting layer for Compliance activities to give assurance to the Board and our regulators that we are effectively managing the risks we face. 

You will do this by partnering very closely with Compliance in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region to ensure they can execute against the compliance regulatory reporting schedule, as well as leveraging data to proactively monitor risks.

• Enable self-serve analytics by creating intuitive, scalable data models and tools (e.g. Dashboards), helping stakeholders quickly find the insights they need.
• Drive analytics for regulatory reporting, translating requirements, validating outputs to submissions

• Help build a world-class Compliance Analytics team that fosters high trust with our customers and external partners.
• Travel when needed to our offices across the globe to connect with local compliance experts. 
• Learn from a global network of professionals. We have a large, diverse team of analysts, data scientists and Compliance partners that you will work with and learn from.

A bit about you: 

• You're proficient in SQL and comfortable working with relational databases.
• You have knowledge of data modeling fundamentals and ideally some experience designing and implementing data structures.
• You have experience with designing and owning data assets; you can build and maintain complex data sources and can leverage visualisation tools (Looker, Superset, etc) to surface insights
• You understand the importance of data integrity, quality & governance. You know how to produce comprehensive data documentation
• You're a clear communicator who can simplify complex technical concepts for non-technical teammates, document assumptions clearly, and influence cross-functional partners across Risk, Compliance, Product, and Engineering.

• You have experience with data modelling and tooling dbt (models, tests, docs, macros) and a modern data warehouse (BigQuery, Databricks, or Snowflake); able to own a data model end-to-end, not just query existing tables
• Knowledge of python for data analysis

For everyone, everywhere. We're people building money without borders  — without judgement or prejudice, too. We believe teams are strongest when they are diverse, equitable and inclusive.
