About The Opportunity
The Large Financial Institutions Supervision (LFIS) unit of the Supervision, Regulation & Credit (SRC) Department has an immediate opening for Vice President/ Dedicated Supervisory Team (DST) Lead for the Bank of America Corporation team. The DST Lead is accountable for and leads a team that will include approximately 15 team members. This is an officer role and the position reports directly to the Senior Vice President responsible for the LFIS unit.
The successful candidate will be responsible for designing and directing the supervision consistent with national program requirements for Bank of America Corporation (BAC), a Systemically Important Financial Institution (SIFI) and the second largest financial institution in the United States. This involves leading and contributing to institution specific as well as large-scale horizontal supervisory assessments. The latter consist of high-profile, complex work that requires thought leadership and strong organization, collaboration, and communication skills. The collective supervision of BAC is accomplished through the activities of an assigned team of managers and experienced examiners as well as risk specialists housed outside of the supervisory team, establishing partnerships with other regulatory authorities, and communicating activities and results to a wide variety of stakeholders.
The DST Lead will establish ongoing and productive relationships with BAC’s executive management and board of directors, the Operating Committee (OC)’s program leadership and staff, and other domestic and foreign supervisors. The DST lead will coordinate and collaborate closely with OC program leadership to identify and communicate deficiencies to the financial institution. This individual routinely participates in vetting sessions with senior System personnel and actively communicates deficiencies in risk management practices and emerging risk issues to senior Reserve Bank management, the OC, and Board of Governors official staff.
The successful candidate must continually remain aware of and contribute to the understanding of industry[1]wide risk exposures and the assigned institution’s risk position relative to these national profiles. To accomplish this, this individual must be able to quickly analyze a large volume of information to understand firm-specific and broader financial stability issues and concerns. The DST Lead is responsible for establishing expectations and providing coaching and feedback to his or her team members. This individual is also responsible for the career development of his/her direct reports and for overseeing career development for members of the dedicated supervisory team. The DST Lead is also responsible for ensuring team members’ compliance with Unit, Department, Reserve Bank and System policies and procedures. The preferred location for this role Charlotte, NC.
