We are looking for you who can bring solid communication and relationship capabilities when driving projects managing stakeholders in a complex environment. You will be bridging initiatives with agendas, and making sure there is alignment and collaboration across. Therefore, it is vital that you can recognise yourself in a role with responsibility, adding structure and value into a dynamic and fast-paced environment.

We believe in “freedom with responsibility”: you get to be responsible for your own part from day one – of course with great support from leaders and fellow team members. We therefore expect you to be curious, eager to learn, and have a resolve to constructively challenge the status quo.

  • Loves having fun and is easy – going

… Equally important is your passion for business transformation.

Experience from financial services (ideally wholesale banking) is preferred, but not mandatory – just as experience in different project methodology e.g. Agile, Prince2 or PMP is considered beneficial, but not a requirement.

This role can be calibrated based on your experience and know-how.
