• You deliver the highest quality – on internal assignments and especially for our clients;

• You hold a degree from university, college, a university of applied sciences or a business school;

• Relevant experience in consulting or in the financial sector via previous work engagements or internships is clearly a benefit but not essential;

• You have a good understanding of the financial services industry, financial markets, and the underlying business concepts in banking as well as asset- and wealth management – or are confident that you can develop this knowledge very quickly;

• You demonstrate very strong analytical skills, problem-solving capability, and critical scrutiny;

• You are very well organised and highly structured and able to manage priorities and deadlines; you can anticipate challenges and potential issues and communicate those in a solution-oriented manner;

• You showcase a creative mindset in our daily business but especially when facing issues;

• You possess advanced knowledge and skills in common MS-Office tools; any additional capabilities (VBA, PowerBI, Alteryx, etc.) will be beneficial;
