Job description

The Finance Automation Team sits within the Automation, Testing & AI Enablement area of Future Capabilities & Operations. Our mission is to empower Finance with trusted insights and intelligent automation that improve decision-making, strengthen control, and drive efficient, sustainable performance.

We design and deliver impactful digital solutions that improve efficiency, insight, and control across the Finance Function, using Microsoft Power Platform technologies to transform business requirements into scalable, low-code solutions. We also operate the Finance Automation Centre of Excellence, supporting colleagues across Finance to work smarter through automation and data-driven solutions.

As a Systems Data & Change Senior Consultant, you'll join a team of automation specialists and data professionals focused on simplifying processes, reducing manual effort, and enabling better decision-making. Working closely with stakeholders across Finance, you'll help deliver innovative solutions that create real business value while ensuring robust controls and governance are maintained.

You will be one of a small number of lead developers with a small team of junior developers reporting into you.

We are happy to consider flexible working approaches to help you perform at your best.

This is a 12-month secondment opportunity.

At Nationwide we offer hybrid working wherever possible. More rewarding relationships are supported through our hybrid approach, bringing colleagues together across our UK wide estate, whilst also supporting generous access to home working. We value our time in the office to solve problems, to learn, and to feel connected.

For this role, you'll be based at your nearest regional office or hub. We value time spent together to connect with colleagues for collaboration so there will be a regular requirement to attend our Swindon site approximately once per month. If you are based at an office location, you'll be expected to meet our hybrid working requirement of at least two days a week, or 40% of your working time if part-time, in the office. If your application is successful, your hiring manager will provide further details on how this works.

Nationwide is committed to the redeployment of our employees impacted by change, as such applications for redeployment candidates will be prioritised in this recruitment process.

If you're a colleague on long-term absence (for example, on parental leave) or a temporary worker, please use your personal email address to submit an application.
