Place of work Frankfurt am Main, Germany
Closing date 09.09.2024
You will be part of the Directorate General Systemic and International Banks, the Directorate General Universal and Diversified Institutions or the Directorate General Specialised Institutions and Less Significant Institutions. Together, these Directorates General are responsible for conducting the direct and day-to-day supervision of significant banks under the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM).
In your role as Supervision Analyst, you will be part of a Joint Supervisory Team (JST) responsible for the supervision of a specific significant bank. You will work closely with supervisors from both the ECB and the national competent authorities.
The SSM is the system of banking supervision in Europe. It comprises the ECB and the national supervisory authorities of the participating countries.
The ECB is an inclusive employer and we strive to reflect the diversity of the population we serve. We encourage you to apply irrespective of age, disability, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, race, religious beliefs, sexual orientation or other characteristics.
As a Supervision Analyst you will:
- participate as JST representative in the 2025 EU-wide stress test exercises involving several institutions and JSTs;
- perform quality assurance activities on information submitted by SSM banks participating in these stress tests, provide technical and analytical input to support decision-making and carry out related activities;
- engage and collaborate with various stakeholders across the ECB, as well as with supervised banks on specific issues and results;
- discuss the outcomes of the 2025 EU-wide stress tests with relevant colleagues at the ECB and the management of the supervised bank;
- contribute to the development of supervisory methods and initiatives for cooperation and information-sharing within the SSM.
Depending on the team's business needs, you may alternatively be allocated to the JST’s regular work, which will include contributing to the assessment of the business model, governance, risk measurement and management, and capital and liquidity positions of the supervised banks. This work will also include identifying supervisory activities, drafting recommendations and assessing the implementation of risk mitigation measures.
The position offers you excellent opportunities to develop a profound understanding of supervisory stress tests, the work of a JST and the impact of risk areas on banks’ capital positions. You will be part of a multicultural team that strives for continuous innovation to make a positive impact on the lives of European citizens.
