Lead and participate in on-site inspections of credit risk models as senior Internal Model Expert at DNB.
You will have an impact
Do you want your work to influence financial stability and the banking sector’s ability to support sustainable growth? As a senior internal model expert at DNB, you can make a meaningful difference in a stimulating and professional environment. You will contribute to the European supervisory agenda through impactful assessments of regulatory internal models, with a primary focus on credit risk.
This is what you will be doing as an internal model expert at DNB
You will lead and participate in on-site inspections of credit risk models under the internal ratings-based approach (IRB), which are conducted entirely or partially at banks’ premises. You will provide high-quality analyses and advice on internal models and quantitative credit risk management in support of DNB’s supervisory and financial stability mandates.
As a senior expert, you will be expected to act as Head of Mission (HoM) on inspections. This means taking full responsibility for the project: leading the mission team, managing timelines and deliverables, ensuring the quality and clarity of the output, and coordinating interactions with inspected institutions and internal and external stakeholders. You will also mentor junior staff and actively contribute to knowledge sharing within DNB and across the Single Supervisory Mechanism (SSM).
Your responsibilities will include:
This role offers excellent exposure to the inner workings of banks, the architecture of internal risk models, and the functioning of European banking supervision. It is a strong foundation for a broader career in supervision, central banking, or risk management.
This is where you will be working
You will be based at DNB’s offices in Amsterdam, within the Supervision of National Banks & Expertise Division (TNBE). TNBE comprises around 140 professionals with diverse backgrounds and nationalities, organized into 8 departments. The Internal Models Department consists of 21 staff and focuses on inspections and methodological work related to credit risk models.
Internal model investigations are project-based, with teams composed according to the expertise required for each assignment. Increasingly, these inspections are led and conducted at the European level. Senior experts are expected to take on coordinating roles, including acting as Head of Mission, within these cross-border missions. In addition to inspections, you may participate in internal or international working groups focused on regulation, supervisory methodology, or tooling innovation. You will also have access to a broad range of training and development opportunities, including technical courses, regulatory modules, and soft skills workshops.
You will join a diverse and international team where inclusion is not just appreciated but essential to our success. We foster a culture of psychological safety and openness, and we value respectful dialogue, transparency, and constructive feedback. We strive to maintain a work-life balance that reflects the demands of on-site work while respecting personal boundaries and wellbeing.
