Job Description

RiverBank is one of Luxembourg's fast growing financial services companies. Our purpose is to help established SMEs, one of the last major underserved opportunities in banking. Established SMEs are the backbone of local communities - yet have been largely neglected both by traditional high street banks and modern providers.

Purpose of the Role

The Head of Planning and Reporting is responsible for shaping and leading the organisation’s integrated business planning framework, ensuring financial, operational, risk and strategic objectives are aligned. This includes building multi year business plans covering P&L, balance sheet, capital and liquidity, while developing advanced financial models that support strategic decision making, portfolio analysis and long term growth. The role also oversees budgeting, stress testing and capital adequacy modelling to keep the business on track with both strategic ambitions and regulatory expectations.

A major part of the role involves leading regulatory reporting across Finance and Risk, ensuring outputs such as FINREP, COREP, IRRBB and BCL are accurate, compliant and operationally efficient. The position also drives performance reporting, monitoring KPIs, analysing variances and preparing high quality insights for senior stakeholders including the Board, Management and investors. This requires transforming data into actionable recommendations that influence strategic direction
