Why This Role Matters
We are in the process of creating a Data Validation Team within the CFO domain. This team will play a critical role in ensuring data quality throughout the entire loan life cycle, thereby enhancing the reliability of our financial and regulatory reporting for the Structured Finance Division. This position is ideally suited for seasoned Loan Administration Officers or Data Quality Specialists seeking to elevate their careers into an independent data assurance role.
Context: The first line (Transaction Support/Loan Administration) is responsible for initial data capture and processing. The second line establishes the standards, conducts independent validations, and maintains ongoing oversight, providing constructive challenges to the first line within a sound governance framework. Initially, the focus will be on the Structured Finance Division, with plans to extend to other front-office operations in the future.
At NBE, we offer a collaborative work environment where your contributions serve a greater purpose: safeguarding the future of food, communities, and the planet. If you are driven to make a substantial impact while advancing your career in banking, NBE is the ideal setting for you.
The Role Overview
As a Loan Data Validation Officer, you will design, implement, and continuously enhance the loan data validation framework, focusing on syndicated lending, project finance, and bilateral loans for corporate clients. Your responsibilities will include defining validation rules, conducting independent sampling and reconciliations, managing discrepancies and remediation efforts, and reporting trends and Key Risk Indicators (KRIs) to Finance, Risk, and Management. You will be an integral part of the Transaction Support team.
