The Liquidity Risk Management team is a part of the Global Treasury Organization at American Express. The team’s core objective is to ensure the company meets its regulatory liquidity needs by forecasting the company’s regulatory liquidity requirements, collaborating with the funding team to ensure timely funding of those needs, and performing Liquidity Stress Testing (LST) to ensure the company remains compliant with all regulatory liquidity requirements on an ongoing basis.
This Director role is an amazing opportunity to lead a group of high-performing colleagues responsible for ensuring that American Express successfully migrates from a Category IV bank to Category III & II in coming years. This requires ongoing interpretation of regulatory requirements, incorporating the requirements within the company’s Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR), Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR) and the LST framework, including the review and refresh of all assumptions and documentation of treatment into the Liquidity Risk Management process.
The successful candidate will play the role of expert in liquidity related regulations and understanding of its applications to a company’s liquidity risk management processes and practices. The role also requires an appreciation of bank governance related activities, regulator expectations and ability to collaborate with second and third lines of defense in uplifting the company’s liquidity risk management practices.

* Support preparation of key committee materials and preparation of documentation.
* Perform analysis and review of Liquidity related assumptions, methodologies and processes for liquidity sources and uses.
* Analyze and interpret liquidity buffer (target), including key drivers and trend analysis.
* Support management of key projects related to liquidity, including regulatory remediation, compliance and systems enhancements and other change management projects.
* Drive communication in various bank governance committees, collaborate with second & third lines of defense, and support leaders in various dialogs and exams by regulatory bodies.
* Lead and develop a team.
**Minimum Qualifications**
* 8 years Finance/Treasury experience.
* Ability to adopt a broad perspective and link business strategies to liquidity risks.
* Self-starter, with a proactive approach and a passion to consistently deliver high quality results.
