Analyst within Group Finance

Job Description

Analyst in Group Finance

We are offering a growth-focused role in Forecasting & Analytics within Group Finance. With market rates experiencing historical stress due to central bank changes and trade tensions, this position provides an opportunity to understand how these factors impact a bank’s results and balance sheet composition.

If you have strong skills in mathematics and finance and are seeking new opportunities where your daily responsibilities include development, analysis, and communication, then this role might be perfect for you.

Who We Are in Group Finance?

The primary responsibility of Group Finance is to guide the bank safely through periods of market stress, with a critical focus on understanding the bank’s interest rate risk. In Forecasting & Analytics, we ensure the bank is well-positioned for interest rate fluctuations by delivering incisive analyses to senior management regarding the bank’s interest income and sensitivity to interest rate movements. We also develop tools that enhance understanding of the bank’s balance sheet from a forward-looking perspective. Our data-driven forecast, presented at an international banking conference in Chicago, is considered best in class and plays a significant role in the bank’s strategic planning.

With our forecast gaining significant traction and interest rate risk becoming a central focus, we are expanding the team with a new position. You will become part of an academically engaged environment, and a team of eight dedicated colleagues interested in development. The atmosphere is informal, sociable, and flat in hierarchy.

What Does The Role Look Like

We offer a varied workday. Your primary responsibilities will include:

• Forecasting the bank’s cash flows under various interest rate scenarios, collaborating with the firm QRM based in Chicago/London, as well as our business areas.
• Developing interest rate risk calculations for internal and regulatory purposes.
• Conducting analyses for senior management and projects of varying durations.
• Collaborating with our sister team that develops behavioural models.
• Working with large volumes of data using SQL and Excel.
• You will be given responsibility and training to understand the impact of interest rates on a bank’s results.
  
  

Who are we looking for?

We envision you have a degree such as cand.scient.oecon, cand.polit, cand.merc, or a similar financial qualification. You should have strong numerical skills, logical understanding and enjoy working with large datasets and complex products. You should have a drive where you are solution-oriented and proactive. You may be newly graduated or have experience. What matters most to us is your motivation and character. Proficiency in English is required, as it is our corporate language.
