Your team You will be part of either the Directorate General Systemic and International Banks, the Directorate General Universal and Diversified Institutions, or the Directorate General Specialised Institutions and Less Significant Institutions. Together, these directorates general are responsible for conducting the direct and day-to-day supervision of significant banks under the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM).

In your role as Supervision Analyst, you will be part of a Joint Supervisory Team (JST) responsible for the supervision of a specific significant bank. You will work closely with supervisors from both the ECB and the national competent authorities.

The SSM is the system of banking supervision in Europe. It comprises the ECB and the national supervisory authorities of the participating countries.

The ECB is an inclusive employer and we strive to reflect the diversity of the population we serve. We encourage you to apply irrespective of age, disability, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, race, religious beliefs, sexual orientation or other characteristics.

Your role As a Supervision Analyst, you will:

• participate, as JST representative, in the 2027 EU-wide stress test exercises involving several institutions and JSTs;
• perform quality assurance activities on information submitted by SSM banks participating in these stress tests, provide technical and analytical input to support decision-making, and carry out related activities;
• engage and collaborate with various stakeholders across the ECB, as well as with supervised banks, on specific issues and results;
• discuss the outcomes of the 2027 EU-wide stress tests with relevant colleagues at the ECB and the management of the supervised bank;
• contribute to the development of supervisory methods and initiatives for cooperation and information sharing within the SSM.

Depending on the team’s business needs, you may alternatively be allocated to the JST’s regular work, which will include contributing to the assessment of supervised banks’ business models, governance, risk measurement and management, and capital and liquidity positions. This work will also include identifying supervisory activities, drafting recommendations and assessing the implementation of risk mitigation measures.

For these roles we are seeking candidates who demonstrate the potential for growth, and we will support the selected candidates in developing the relevant skills.

The position offers you excellent opportunities to develop a profound understanding of supervisory stress tests, the work of a JST and the impact of various risk areas on banks’ capital positions. You will be part of a multicultural team that strives for continuous innovation to make a positive impact on the lives of European citizens.

Qualifications, experience and skills Essential:

• a bachelor’s degree or equivalent in economics, finance, business administration, accountancy, law or another relevant field (see How you can join us for details on degree equivalences);
• in addition to the above, a minimum of two years’ professional experience (other than as a trainee or intern) in central banking, banking supervision, finance, consulting, auditing or law, or working for rating agencies;
• a sound understanding of the functioning of credit institutions, the Single Rulebook, risk management and/or auditing;
• an advanced (C1) command of English and an intermediate (B1) command of at least one other official language of the EU, according to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages .

Desired:

• previous experience of stress test exercises;
• experience in banking supervision in the context of the SSM.

You engage collaboratively with others. You pursue team goals and learn willingly from other people’s diverse perspectives. You signal any need for change by explaining it and proposing alternative solutions. You analyse complex information effectively and can evaluate different views to arrive at solutions. You know and anticipate stakeholder needs.

You are motivated to be part of our team and to develop and use your skills and competencies to achieve the aims of this position.

Working modalities The ECB teleworking rules apply. For selected weeks, during certain key phases of the project timeline, on-site presence at the ECB’s headquarters in Frankfurt am Main may be required.
