Business Analyst – MI Essbase recruitment

OVERVIEW:

During 2011 the bank implemented a new Liquidity Transfer Pricing (LTP) methodology which, in response to FSA guidance, seeks to fully embed ILAS (Individual Liquidity Adequacy Standards) principles in internal cross charging of liquidity and funding costs, margin and profitability assessment and reporting, pricing, and front line business targeting and incentivisation policies.

Within the Finance department, a proof of concept Essbase LTP MI solution has been developed, and there is now a requirement to roll this out to Retail and Wholesale and International Divisions, as well as Group Treasury.

In order to meet the ever increasing demands of both the business and finance communities with respect to information and analysis around LTP, the timetable to achieve this has been aggressively set as the end of Q1, giving rise to a requirement for analyst support in the build and testing of the database.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

•   To assist with the preparation and upload of Divisional LTP deal level data into the Essbase cube based on defined business rules.

•   To assist with the validation and reconciliation of uploaded data against centrally produced control totals from the LTP model.

•   To assist with troubleshooting and issues resolution.

•   To support UAT and transition into the BAU environment.

•   To assist with procedures documentation to meet the requirements of internal and external governance frameworks.

SKILLS:
