Join our team as an Analyst Trainee!
Whether you are already further along in your career or just starting out, we offer you the opportunity to dive in and be trained in working on balance sheet and risk management within the financial sector.
What You’ll Do
You will join our Balance Sheet and Risk Management Analysis team. We offer you a trainee position where you will gain a front-row seat to learn about interest rate risk regulation and develop broadly in tasks related to banks’ risk management.

Our solutions combine technical modeling capabilities with an understanding of banking business needs. For risk modeling, we use the FIS Balance Sheet Manager software.
Our team maintains and develops long-term client relationships and provides recommendations to support clients’ banking business decision-making and development. We closely monitor interest rate market movements and macroeconomic changes to support our clients, for example, in interest rate risk hedging measures and assessing their impacts.
You will join a young and motivated group where new ideas and development suggestions are warmly welcomed and acted upon. Our team consists of nine balance sheet and risk management experts in the financial sector, who have an active, analytical, and forward-looking approach to work. We work together as one and want everyone to enjoy their work. Our team is characterized by trust, seamless collaboration, and mutual respect - values we also uphold in our client work.
