Job description

Treasury Consultant - Lead Business Analyst

Location Swindon / Wiltshire Other Locations London / Greater London
Northampton / Northamptonshire Salary Circa £52,000 Contract Permanent ( Full Time ) Reference 478 Closing Date 02 January 2026

With the integration of Nationwide and Virgin Money there has never been a more exciting time to work in regulatory change at the society. This role is for a Lead Business Analyst who is interested in implementing changes to Financial Reporting within the Group’s Finance function.

You will work with stakeholders from reporting teams across the entirety of Finance, reaching out to other areas of the business when required.

The keys to success in this role are being a self-motivated individual who takes pride in delivering value to business stakeholders, owning an inquisitive mindset and desire to improve financial reporting and adherence to regulation. To this end, enjoying the challenge of working in the details to solve complex problems while assessing the wider picture of how systems and data fit together across the group will be a necessity.

The value stream works under an agile framework, focussing on 2-week sprints where each team member delivers value towards the overall project goals. The value stream’s focus is currently split across Treasury reporting change (Basel 3.1), Tax reporting changes (Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) or enhancing Bank Levy reporting and upcoming Virgin Money integration activities. We support all reporting across the Finance function so there will be opportunities to be involved in other projects, supporting other teams within Finance.

In this role you’ll get to experience how regulatory-driven changes impact our Financial Risk categories and our business-wide reporting. You’ll establish strong relationships with key stakeholders across the entire organisation and also be able to deep dive into finance specific business areas to understand and enhance their reporting capabilities.

We are happy to consider flexible working approaches to help you perform at your best.

The working hours (per week) for this role can be between 28 and 35 hours.

At Nationwide we offer hybrid working wherever possible. More rewarding relationships are supported through our hybrid approach, bringing colleagues together across our UK wide estate, whilst also supporting generous access to home working. We value our time in the office to solve problems, to learn, and to feel connected.

For this job you'll spend at least two days per week, or if part time you'll spend 40% of your working time, based at either our Swindon, Northampton or London office. If your application is successful, your hiring manager will provide further details on how this works. You can also find out more about our approach tohybrid working here.

If we receive a high volume of relevant applications, we may close the advert earlier than the advertised date, so please apply as soon as you can.

What you’ll be doing

You will be working in the Reporting Value Stream on the change projects that will build our strategic vision for reporting within Finance.

You will be responsible for analysing and recording requirements, designing and suggesting solutions and testing those solutions when built after which you will report on project progress to senior management and help drive forward solutions. You’ll also work with a range of stakeholders and invest time in understanding their data and processes and then use what you learn to help work through problems or conflicting viewpoints to work towards the best solution.

Working with business designers to ensure the solution meets the governance standards required within a financial services business you’ll need to be flexible in your approach as your focus may shift to different projects across Finance. Proactivity and the ability to build technical knowledge quickly will be key to this.

About you

As a minimum you will have:

Experience in an analytic role, be highly competent in data analysis (which you will use to perform testing on complex requirements) and also be naturally curious with a high level of attention to detail

Advanced Excel skills - competent with advanced formulas and building macros to support testing or building new processes

A proven track record in outlining and documenting complex project / change requirements and converting them into actionable tasks

Excellent written and verbal communication skills, experienced in presenting to multiple levels of seniority up to and including Director level

Understanding of typical Change Management Lifecycles with the capability to lead (with support) on change projects

Our customer first behaviours put customers and members at the heart of how we work together. They are the set of behaviours that every colleague needs to display, in every role:

Feel what customers feel - We step into our customers’ shoes, using their feedback and insights to empathise with them and to understand their needs, so that every decision we make starts and finishes with our customers in mind

Say it straight - We are brave in speaking out and saying what we think – we’re honest and direct with good intent, openly sharing diverse perspectives to reach the best conclusions and using language everyone can understand

Push for better - We don’t settle for mediocrity, we challenge the status quo, taking responsibility for continuous improvement and personal development

Get it done - We prioritise what will have the greatest impact, we are decisive, and we take accountability for delivering brilliant customer outcomes

You can strengthen your application by showing how our customer first behaviours resonate with you, and where you may have already demonstrated these.

The extras you’ll get

There are all sorts of employee benefits available at Nationwide, including:

From January 2026, all Nationwide colleagues will benefit from private medical insurance

A highly competitive pension to help you build a strong foundation for retirement

Access to an annual performance related bonus

A great selection of additional benefits through our salary sacrifice scheme

Life assurance to provide peace of mind for you and your loved ones in the event of your death

Banking – but fairer, more rewarding, and for the good of society

We forge our own path at Nationwide.

As a mutual, we’re owned by our members - those customers who bank, save or have a mortgage with us. We challenge the financial sector status quo. We don’t see customers as the engine of our own profit. We share our profits with them and put their needs first. Always there when they need us. Supporting them and their lives.

If you’re inspired by fairer finances, passionate about making a meaningful impact, and truly care about our customers, you’re one of us.

At Nationwide, you are challenged to grow and rewarded for doing so. Valued. Recognised. Inspired to be your best. As a community we want our working lives to count. As a team, we celebrate what we achieve. As a standard-setter, we work for the good of customers, communities, and broader society.

We are purpose-driven. Uncompromisingly customer. Unstoppably Nationwide.
