At OakNorth, we’re on a mission to empower the UK’s most ambitious businesses. Since 2015, we’ve lent over $21 billion across the UK and US, helped create more than 58,000 new homes and 36,000 new jobs, and supported hundreds of thousands of personal savers — all while fuelling the UK economy.
Reporting to the Group Treasurer, the Director of ALM will provide the analytical rigour and quantitative frameworks that inform balance sheet strategy — enabling better decisions on interest rate positioning, hedging, and funding mix. The role will mature and lead the Bank's ALM function, elevating existing capabilities in IRRBB, liquidity, and funds transfer pricing into a more sophisticated analytical engine, and building the infrastructure to support an £8bn balance sheet as we expand internationally.
This is a hands-on practitioner role.
We need someone who has built ALM frameworks, designed behavioural models, and implemented analytical systems. The successful candidate will bring deep expertise across IRRBB, FTP, and balance sheet risk management, introduce Python-based quantitative models, and translate risk analysis into actionable hedging strategies.
Beyond technical delivery, this is a leadership role: providing day-to-day oversight of India-based analysts who design and run the bank's IRRBB and liquidity frameworks, working alongside a London-based senior analyst, and building a function that can scale with the group's expansion into the US.
