MI Analyst & Project Coordinator
My client, a global Corporate Investment Banking, is looking to hire an individual on a 12-month FTC to co-ordinate a global project and produce the associated MI.
Embedded within the Data Analytics team, you will drive the rollout of DA globally across the Internal Audit function as London becomes the global centre of excellence. As such, you should be able to act as a conduit between DA and IA in assessing how DA tools can be developed and where they are utilised. The MI you produce will play a key part in illustrating uptake and inform decisions at Executive level.
Responsibilities will include but not be limited to:
- Coordinate communication across the global IA Data Analytics community, ensuring alignment between EMEA, Head Office, APAC, and the Americas, including follow-ups and scheduling.
- Support cross-regional working groups, forums, and collaboration initiatives, maintaining strong information flow and shared awareness of Data Analytics activities.
- Engage with stakeholders across regions, time zones and disciplines to facilitate smooth coordination in an environment with limited shared tools and platforms.
- Maintain simple agile tools or trackers (e.g. Excel, Planner, lightweight Jira boards when available) to support transparency and workflow organisation.
- Maintain global project trackers, action logs, and documentation, ensuring accuracy, clarity, and consistent updates across all regions.
- Coordinate the EMEA pipeline of analytics engagements, including c.20 small-scale ad-hoc projects, ensuring effective organisation, prioritisation, and follow-up across the audit support portfolio.
- Coordinate and support the work of c.10 EMEA data analysts, helping to structure delivery through light agile practices such as stand-ups, sprint planning, and retrospectives.
- Maintain transparency of work in progress through effective backlog management, sprint updates, and activity reporting.
- Produce accurate, timely recurring and ad-hoc management reports for IA stakeholders across EMEA and globally.
- Build, update and optimise dashboards using Power BI or Tableau, ensuring they remain relevant and user-friendly.
Internal Audit experience is not required for this role, but you will ideally have some experience in partnering with a risk and controls function, such as Risk/Compliance/Audit, within Financial Services. Please also note that this project is not driven by big budget technology initiatives and such experience is not aligned to what my client is seeking.
