Be a senior member of the liquidity team for HSBC Continental Europe (HBCE). The HBCE Solo entity is comprised of France and its nine branches across the EU region including Germany, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Ireland, Belgium, Spain, Italy, Czech Republic and Poland. It is a circa USD 300 million wholesale balance sheet, movements in which have an impact on the Group’s consolidated liquidity metrics. The HBCE Liquidity team also has oversight of the wider HBCE Consolidated entity, which includes its subsidiaries in Malta (HBMT) and private bank in Luxembourg (PBLU). All three entities make up the HBCE Consolidated entity which is regulated by the European Central Bank (ECB). The continental Europe sub-region has undergone substantial strategic changes over the past few years and continues to evolve, and the HBCE Treasury team plays an important role in supporting these strategic changes.
We are currently seeking an expert individual to join the Liquidity team covering HSBC Continental Europe as a Senior Liquidity Manager (GCB4), based in Paris, France.

What you will do: 

• The HBCE Liquidity team is responsible for setting the strategy for liquidity management, ensuring the liquidity policy is effectively implemented, owning entity stress testing, and ultimately steering the entity’s liquidity to ensure safe, yet efficient, management of liquidity from a first line perspective 
• The HBCE Liquidity team is relatively small and covers the full range of liquidity topics from regulatory reporting (both local and PRA)
• Overseeing local change projects, partnering with the businesses and ensuring liquidity and funding is optimized within limits, ensuring local regulations are met 
• The team works closely with Markets Treasury, the Recovery & Resolution Planning teams, the wholesale and markets businesses (including Financial Resources Management), Regulatory Affairs, Risk and a number of other teams across the bank
• The HBCE Liquidity team works very closely together on topics, such that everyone has a reasonable understanding of most topics

You should apply if you have: 

• The role requires a good understanding of the drivers of liquidity risk and how these elements relate to each other, constraining businesses in different ways, and under different circumstances 
• A key aspect of the role will involve the ability to translate these complex topics into clear and concise messages for stakeholders outside of Treasury, notably producing papers for the ALCO, Risk Committee and Board of HBCE. The annual ILAAP report is one of the key deliverables of the HBCE Liquidity team, so the role holder will play an important role in the delivery of this annual regulatory document for HBCE, as well as coordinating with the HBMT and PBLU subsidiaries 
• The role holder will need to be able to interact and communicate confidently with senior stakeholders, particularly in challenging the business lines with respect to their net consumption of liquidity and funding
• The role will also require the ability to operate effectively across the matrix ensuring connectivity across sites and with regional and global colleagues 
• An open and curious mindset, ideally with prior experience of working in Treasury/Liquidity management 
• Communication skills: Ability to turn complex technical topics into concise messages suitable for regulators and Board level stakeholders  
• Previous experience of working a bank Treasury department, either in 1st or 2nd line role. Understanding of liquidity/funding consumption of a trading book business highly desirable 
• Ability to handle multiple priorities, and know when and how to communicate risks and issues through appropriate escalation paths 
• Regulatory engagement experience would be an advantage 
• Ability to operate effectively within a virtual team across the matrix, building and maintaining strong relationships with stakeholders 

Even if you feel you do not meet 100% of our qualifications, we encourage you to apply, if you believe this role is right for you.
