A career as a Senior Director Liquidity Risk Oversight at National Bank means acting as an expert in independent oversight of liquidity and funding risks across the organization. This role allows you to make a meaningful impact on the Bank’s financial soundness by leveraging your expertise in liquidity risk management, regulatory frameworks, and stress testing and scenario analysis.

Your role:

Provide 2LOD oversight of the liquidity and funding risk framework enterprise‑wide (consolidated, branches, subsidiaries), ensuring compliance with risk appetite, policies, and regulatory standards.
Challenge key liquidity metrics and assumptions (e.g., LCR/NSFR/NCCF), methodologies, and governance.
Drive robust liquidity stress testing and scenario analysis; contribute to scenario design, calibration, assumptions, and results.
Oversee intraday liquidity risk indicators and related intraday stress considerations.
Deliver clear, decision-useful insights to senior management and governance forums (e.g., ALCO / risk committees) and identify new products risks and emerging cross-risk linkages.
Promote continuous improvement in oversight, including quality insurance for data/reporting and opportunities for automation.

Your team:

The Liquidity Risk Oversight team in Second Line of Defense (2LOD) provides governance and subject-matter leadership on liquidity regulation by ensuring regulatory guidelines are translated into clear, consistent internal interpretations and requirements. The team also maintains a robust stress-scenario framework, including expectations related to intraday liquidity risk. In partnership with Front Office functions, the team ensures requirements are implemented in a practical manner and embedded into day-to-day decision-making.

Prerequisites:

Minimum of 10 years’ experience in liquidity risk, treasury, risk management, capital markets, or related banking functions.
Strong knowledge of Basel liquidity standards and OSFI guidance (Canada and global context).
Proven ability to provide independent oversight and effective challenge in a governance environment.
Strong analytical and communication skills; comfort with data lineage, reporting controls, and analytics/automation concepts.
Experience with processes and tools used to calculate regulatory liquidity metrics
Experience with Python, SQL, and business intelligence tools

Languages:

English, French

Reason to require this language: you will need to discuss frequently with our service providers or partners who speak a language other than French.
