Job Description

About this opportunity…

Digital Assets are transforming the future of financial services—and there’s never been a more exciting time to be part of that journey. As the Group moves confidently into the Digital Asset market in 2026, we’re shaping innovative propositions that span both Commercial and Retail customers, with new products and technology builds already in development.

We are investing in cutting‑edge capabilities—from blockchain adoption to tokenised transactions—to ensure LBG becomes the UK’s trusted conduit for digital assets - offering the chance to help shape foundational controls and keep the Group resilient in a fast‑evolving market.

Because these products operate in a high-risk space from an economic crime prevention perspective, we are looking for dedicated ECP expertise to guide and influence the development of the control environment, including oversight of key technology builds that will be required for scale-up and operating model considerations.

About us…

At Lloyds Banking Group, we're passionate about Helping Britain Prosper. We want to become the best bank for our customers, and our vision is to disrupt Economic Crime, enable safe growth and protect our communities from the harms of economic crime. We support the Group’s ambition to grow, and our role is to ensure that we facilitate that growth safely, keeping customers, colleagues, and communities safe from harm.

This role sits within our Economic Crime Prevention Team supporting BCB, CIB and LBCM, helping support the business in managing its economic crime risk profile.

What you’ll do…

Working in a small, dedicated team you'll:

• Facilitate and contribute to the development of our strategic approach across the wider Group’s ECP community
• Manage engagement on behalf of the business with the Digital Assets Lab, ECP Platform and 2LOD ECP teams to understand the risks associated with Digital Wallets, Tokenised Deposits, Digital Assets and Stablecoins.
• Contribute pro-actively to the identification of controls required and steps required to develop these, including changes to processes, technology and operating models.
• Support the implementation and embedment of amended or new controls.
• Manage relationships with important internal customers and function as their business partner, supporting relevant senior management.
• Work with the ECP Policy, Strategy and Oversight teams to identify changes required to Policy, standards and methodologies (e.g. BECRA and CRA) to enable LBG’s participation in Digital Assets.
• Support the training and upskilling of colleagues in Digital Finance.
• Support the adoption of technology to enable effective monitoring of blockchain.
• Support the development and implementation of a framework to manage economic crime investigations into payments made using digital assets.

What you’ll need…

• We are looking for individuals that love learning, have an appetite to protect the Group, its customers, and its communities.
• You need to be an economic crime prevention expert.
• A solid understanding of risks and controls across the customer and product lifecycle for fraud and financial crime, in particular AML and Sanctions.
• You will have an understanding of prevention and detection technologies for both Fraud and Financial Crime.

• Experience or knowledge in the evolving Digital Assets space would be ideal, including use of blockchain technology, cryptocurrencies and tokenisation, but those with an appetite to upskill quickly should also apply!
• An understanding of Commercial and particularly Markets products would be advantageous; and
• Experience and understanding in payments, settlement, PSO frameworks would be beneficial.

About working for us…

We support working from home in this hybrid role and encourage 2 days a week out of our Edinburgh, Birmingham or London hubs. We're also supportive of flexible and part-time working and happy to have a conversation about finding a work/life balance that works!

As a leading employer we're passionate about diversity and equal opportunity with industry recognition across gender, ethnicity, disability, LGBTQ+ and families. And, being disability positive, reasonable adjustments can be accommodated in our Recruitment process.

We'll also offer you a comprehensive package that includes:

• A competitive salary

• Private health care extendable to family

At Lloyds Banking Group, we're driven by a clear purpose; to help Britain prosper. Across the Group, our colleagues are focused on making a difference to customers, businesses and communities.
