Executive Manager, Climate Scenario Analysis

2 weeks ago


Sydney, Australia Westpac Group Full time

Exciting opportunity for an experienced climate risk measurement specialist to join our ESG Risk Team
- Permanent fulltime opportunity
- Sydney or Melbourne based position

**How will I help?**

This is a key role which will support the development and implementation of improved climate risk management capability across the Group. In this role you will ensure a market-leading approach is in place to analyse the potential impacts and opportunities of climate change (physical, transition, etc), using climate scenario analysis to deliver insights that inform strategy and risk management decision-making.

You will work closely with stakeholders across the Group and external partners in helping to ensure climate-related risks and opportunities are understood, supported by a fit-for-purpose climate scenario analysis capability. You will be accountable for providing expert advice to stakeholders across the first and second line of risk management.

Additional accountabilities include:

- Support the development and execution of climate risk measurement priorities: work with colleagues across Risk, Business Units and Group Sustainability to understand the risks and opportunities of climate change
- Climate analysis: drawing on multiple analytical techniques to translate global climate scenarios into potential impacts to the Group, and drawing out implications. For example:

- Climate scenarios: Lead the analysis of macroeconomic and weather scenarios (for example, published by IPCC, IEA, NGFS) to provide insights on their use and implications for the Australian economy
- Acute physical risk and opportunities: Analyse the risks to physical assets (e.g., mortgages) arising from an increased frequency and/or severity of extreme weather events
- Chronic physical risk and opportunities: Analyses the impact of long-term changes in weather patterns on economic activity (e.g., agricultural productivity)
- Transition risks and opportunities: assess the impact to credit portfolios of changes in policies, technologies and consumer preferences
- Governance: Communication outcomes and insights of climate analysis with relevant risk committees and forums.
- Support the delivery of regulatory and industry scenario analysis exercises
- Produce insights to be included in public climate disclosures

**What’s in it for me?**

You’ll play a significant part of the future of a business that has been around for 200 years. Our purpose is to create better futures together. So, we’ll back you in the development of your career, internal career prospects, and flexible working. You’ll also keep learning to grown, backed by a fantastic team of people with a can-do, supportive structure. Whatever shape your family takes, we offer generous paid and unpaid parental leave for your nominated primary and support carers. This includes leave to organise adoptions, surrogacy, and foster care arrangements. And we continue to pay your super contributions while you take all the time you need to get your new family settled

**What do I need?**

You'll need a solid 10 years if industry experience in banking and finance, with at least 3 years specifically in a climate-related role. If you've had experience in international markets, that's even better. Your background might include time spent in consulting or professional services.

We're looking for someone with a strong grasp of climate risk measurement and a familiarity with global best practices in sustainability. Exceptional quantitative analysis and coding skills are a must-have. Ideally, you'll also have experience in risk quantification within the insurance or banking industry. This could involve executing climate stress testing or scenario analysis programs for financial institutions, estimating the impact of extreme weather on real estate assets, or calculating expected credit losses to lending portfolios under different economic scenarios.

You'll need to be adept at extracting key business and risk insights from complex data analysis and conveying them clearly and concisely to senior management. So, exceptional conceptual and analytical skills are crucial. You should also possess evident business acumen and excellent verbal and written communication capabilities, as you'll be managing multiple stakeholders with differing views.

**What is it like to work there?**

We aim to provide one big, supportive team to help us achieve our purpose of creating better futures together. As well as competitive remuneration and a great culture, joining the Westpac family means you will get some of the best banking, wealth and insurance benefits in the market.

We back our employees by helping them work towards industry-recognised qualifications, using online learning, training modules and career planning tools for you to grow with us. We will even pay you to do volunteer or community work.

As an equal opportunity employer, we are proud to have created a culture and work environment that values diversity
