About this opportunity

The Transport business is at a defining moment, navigating its largest transformation to date as legacy platforms move to the cloud, alongside major industry change driven by electrification and market uncertainty. Finance plays a vital role in supporting this journey, with the Transport Reporting team at the centre of how insight and control enable confident decision‑making!

This Senior Manager role sits within the wider Retail Planning, Reporting & Innovation Team and is focused on delivering and overseeing financial reporting for Transport, providing exposure to performance and commercial drivers, and the opportunity to deepen specialist expertise in transport finance and reporting. Working closely with the Finance Business Partner team and senior stakeholders across the business, you’ll lead a team of 12 and own end‑to‑end financial reporting. You’ll ensure high‑quality, trusted information underpins financial control, while developing deep expertise in transport finance and shaping the insight that helps the business move forward.

What you’ll be doing:

  • Lead, develop and champion the team to foster a high‑performance culture, encouraging stretch objectives and continuous professional development.

  • Support the team in delivering insightful, high‑quality management accounting reporting, maintaining strong financial control, and operating as a specialist management accounting partner across Transport Finance.

  • Build and maintain a strong network across Finance, with effective collaboration between teams being critical to success in the role.

  • Take ownership of both individual and team objectives, proactively investing in personal development, growing capability, and coaching others to optimise performance.

Why join us?

If you think all banks are the same, you’re wrong. We’re a pioneering, fast-changing business that’s shaping finance as a force for good. If you’re after a role where you can have an impact and do the best work of your career, you’ve just found it.

What we’re looking for:

  • A recognised accounting qualification e.g. ACCA, CIMA, ACA or equivalent.

  • At least 5 years experience demonstrating strong financial control operating within a financial services reporting environment.

  • Demonstrable leadership capability, underpinned by a coaching‑led approach that drives high performance, accountability and continuous development.

  • Proven capability to implement and embed multiple change initiatives, supporting teams effectively through periods of transition.

  • A strong sense of curiosity, with the confidence to challenge the status quo and continuously find opportunities to improve how things are done.

  • A collaborative approach, with the ability to build effective working relationships and partner productively with people across different areas of the business.

And any of these would be great:

  • Product Knowledge (HP, Leasing).

  • Power tools and AI e.g. PowerBi.

We know that great talent comes from many backgrounds. Whilst this job advert may reference specific years of experience, we recognise that skills are developed in many ways, so if you have relevant, transferable experience, we encourage you to apply.
