The National Housing Bank (NHB) is a new government-backed financial institution, operating as a subsidiary of Homes England, established to unlock investment and accelerate housing delivery across England. 

We're looking for an enthusiastic individual to join the Investment Operations team and help shape one of the UK's most significant housing finance platforms. 

You'll play a leading role in bringing innovative solutions and continuous improvement to control environment activity that directly supports the achievement of delivery targets, strategic plan objectives and Agency priorities.

This role leads on planning and execution of control insight activities aligned with organisational objectives as well as analysing control weaknesses and propose solutions to mitigate risks and improve compliance.

 

About You 

 

You'll bring significant experience in monitoring the performance of controls, together with overseeing continuous improvement activities to address gaps and deficiencies within the control environment.

We are looking for someone who has:

- a degree-level qualification or equivalent experience in risk, compliance or a related discipline.

- a strong understanding of risk management frameworks and associated documentation.

- experience conducting control testing and implementing process improvements.

- the ability to interpret complex regulatory and governance requirements and apply them effectively.

Why Join? 

 

Backed by £16bn of new financial capacity, the National Housing Bank will work with investors, lenders, developers, housing associations and government partners to crowd in more than £50bn of private investment and support the delivery of 500,000 additional homes across England. 

This is a rare opportunity to work collaboratively across teams and to help strengthen the overall control environment within the National Housing Bank.
