• Payment Systems & Central Bank Operations: Serve as the primary deputy for key payment and settlement infrastructure (Target, ESMIG, MACCS) and oversee central bank account management.
• Audit, Compliance & Governance: Support internal and external audits, enforce compliance with key banking regulations, and drive First Line of Defense (1LoD) risk management.
• Product & Tech Initiatives: Lead New Product Process (NPP) implementations, vendor onboarding, core banking system enhancements, and automated reporting solutions using SQL.

What you need to be successful:

• Experience: Strong background in bank treasury operations, liquidity management, and money markets, with a preference for hands-on Repo/Reverse Repo and hedging experience.
• Technical & System Expertise: Solid familiarity with Treasury Front Office tools (Bloomberg experience required), payment and settlement systems (Target, ESMIG, MACCS), and data querying skills (SQL).
• Regulatory Knowledge: Deep understanding of financial markets combined with a sound grasp of Eurosystem frameworks, reserve requirements, and key European banking regulations (including MaRisk, CRR III, and KWG).
• Ownership: Proven ability to drive cross-functional projects, step in as a trusted deputy across core functions, and operate autonomously in a fast-paced environment.

What’s in it for you:

• Accelerate your career growth by joining one of Europe’s most talked about disruptors.
• Employee benefits that range from a competitive personal development budget, work from home budget, discounts to fitness & wellness memberships, language apps and public transportation.
• As an N26 employee you will have access to a Premium subscription on your personal N26 bank account. As well as subscriptions for friends and family members.
