As Barclays Business Manager, this is a fantastic opportunity to join a fast-growing business, lead and deliver key Business Management activities for the Sustainable Finance function. You’ll help to drive the Barclays UK ESG agenda through partnering senior internal and external stakeholders to lead development of key resources used with Group ExCo, Investors, and the Boards. If you enjoy working in a dynamic, fast paced, and varied environment, are highly organised and passionate about ESG; this could be the role for you.
Barclays is one of the world's largest and most respected financial institutions, with 329 years of success, quality, and innovation behind us. We offer careers that provide endless opportunity – helping millions of individuals and businesses thrive and creating financial and digital solutions that the world now takes for granted.
This opportunity is location flexible. We will consider requests for locating the role at an alternative Barclays’ key UK office from that advertised.
We are currently in the early stages of implementing a hybrid working environment, which means that many colleagues spend part of their working hours at home and part in the office, depending on the nature of the role they are in. We’re flexible on how this works and it may continue to change and evolve. Depending on your team, typically this means that colleagues spend a minimum of between 20% to 60% of their time in the office, which could be over a week, a month or a quarter. However, some colleagues may choose to spend more time in the office over a typical period than their role type requires. We also have a flexible working process where, subject to business needs, all colleagues globally are able to request work patterns to reflect their personal circumstances. Please discuss the detail of the working pattern options for the role with the hiring manager.
