A significant emphasis will be placed on AI‑driven process simplification, automated analytics, and modern data engineering practices to reduce manual effort, enhance reporting accuracy, and accelerate decision‑making across the credit lifecycle. This role is critical to building the CRM function of the future - one that is digital-first, data-driven, automation-enabled, and fully aligned with the enterprise-wide data and AI strategy. Success in this role will materially improve CRM’s operating efficiency, data integrity, analytical capability, and ability to scale support of U.S. Bank Europe’s growth agenda.

Replace traditional manual reporting processes with AI-assisted data preparation and scalable pipeline-driven reporting. Data Quality & Strategy Alignment Work closely with other Risk teams, business lines, Technology, and Data Governance functions across the enterprise to improve data quality, lineage, and completeness across Credit Risk systems and reporting layers. Evaluate and rationalise technology stacks across U.S. and European entities to consolidate credit data sources and enhance interoperability for risk modelling, portfolio monitoring, and reporting. Transformation Administration Support the design, implementation, and maintenance of a CRM transformation plan, ensuring alignment with business growth strategies, regulatory expectations, and broader Risk transformation priorities.

Process Automation Mindset Demonstrated experience identifying or implementing AI-enabled capabilities, such as automated document interpretation, workflow orchestration, or decision-support tools.
