An excellent opportunity for a highly motivated candidate to join the newly established AI Risk Oversight team within the Model Risk Office [MRO] at Lloyds Banking Group. This role offers an exciting opportunity to be part of a dynamic and constantly evolving AI team, providing considerable scope for personal and professional development. MRO will act as the front door for the business to advance their AI ambitions, requiring excellent collaboration with our CCOR teams (e.g., Data Risks, Cyber and Security, Supplier Management, Conduct). Our Purpose: Better Models, Better Decisions, Better Outcomes. About this Opportunity You'll assist in the execution of risk reviews, help develop assurance controls, and support cross-functional collaboration to strengthen AI governance frameworks, and also be responsible for:

• Supporting oversight reviews on AI systems, helping identify risks and evaluate control effectiveness across lifecycle stages.
• Assisting in monitoring AI system usage and flagging governance gaps or critical issues.
• Contributing to the documentation and communication of AI risk issues to internal stakeholders.
• Tracking AI-related regulatory updates and supporting impact assessments.
• Helping align AI oversight activities with model governance and technology risk processes.
Why join us? We're transforming at pace. Investing billions in our people, data and tech to change the way we meet the needs of our 28 million customers. We're growing, and we'd love you to be part of the journey.


• Relevant experience in model risk, AI governance, compliance, or technology risk.
• A foundational understanding of AI/ML and GenAI risks across different lifecycle stages (e.g. data use, model outputs, integration, monitoring).
• Good communication skills with the ability to engage cross-functional teams and summarise technical risk findings clearly.
• Exposure to risk or governance frameworks applied in AI or technology domains.
• Familiarity with second-line risk functions or oversight roles supporting assurance, governance, or regulatory alignment.
And any experience of these would be a plus:
• Familiarity with security risk concepts: data leakage, timely injection, adversarial threats.
• Knowledge of global AI regulations and compliance trends (e.g. EU AI Act, GDPR).
• Exposure to AI tooling or monitoring platforms (e.g. Vertex AI, LLMOps, model tracing tools).
• Exposure to ethical AI topics such as fairness, accountability, and IP risk.
