Who we are looking for
The London Banking and Capital Markets (B&CM) division is currently looking for a Risk Assurance Manager with previous Financial Services Experience.

We provide assurance services to a broad range of clients including:
• Investment Banks / Retail Banks;
• Mortgage Lenders;
• Brokers and Dealers;
• Exchanges; and
• Regulators and other Financial Intermediaries.
Our specialist knowledge extends to clients internal controls (including IT systems), technology, non-financial reporting, and regulatory compliance. We also provide a variety of internal audit services. And since our expertise spans a wide range of industries and sectors, on each and every project we undertake, the advice and assurance we offer can be focused on the individual needs of that client.
To instill confidence in customers, colleagues, investors and anyone else with an interest in their success, organisations need to demonstrate that, whatever threats they might face, they have a plan in place to deal with them. In Risk Assurance it’s our job to help them develop those plans. Our Business Resilience specialists work with our clients to assist them in identifying, measuring and managing their risk more effectively and thereby enhancing the effectiveness of their governance, processes and controls. Clients ask our advice in response to a breakdown in their control environment or else where they have identified the need to achieve more sustainable controls to ensure compliance with internal and external requirements.
