Job description

zeb is one of the leading strategy, management and IT consultancies specializing in financial services in Europe. We support banks, insurance companies and (tech) service providers in dealing with all the challenges and opportunities arising from transformation in the industry.

See where you can contribute your expertise:

• Projects: You will advise banks, insurance companies and other financial services providers on the development of risk strategies and control systems, on the quantitative and qualitative management of various risk types and on the implementation of a wide range of regulatory requirements.
• Accounting: You will support the optimization and redesign of processes as well as advise on ESG topics or accompany software launches.
• Controlling: You will shape the transformation of our clients into world-class financial organizations by developing and optimizing bank management and reporting processes.
• Risk and regulatory: You will work on the analysis of regulatory requirements and their practical design by keeping an eye on current trends in sustainable finance, financial crime and digitalization. Treasury / capital investment: You will contribute to the design of investment strategies with a special focus on deriving strategic asset allocations or sustainably aligning portfolios.
• Responsibility: You will work together in a team to develop innovative solutions or use the opportunity to write your own articles and studies, such as our Regional Banking Study or Insurance Study.

Your skills:

• Excellent university degree (economics, e.g. business studies, political economics, business administration, or natural sciences, e.g. mathematics, physics).
• First experience (in one of the above-mentioned areas) through an internship, in consulting, in the finance and insurance industry or through an apprenticeship/integrated-degree program in the banking and insurance industry.
• Enthusiasm for solving complex problems as well as analytical and communication skills - you can inspire people for zeb and your ideas.
• Stay and grow: you want to constantly deepen your own knowledge and acquire new expertise.
• Excellent command of the German language (at least C1 level, business-fluent proficiency) and good English language skills (at least B2 level, fluent), both written and spoken.

Your Benefits

• Training: Develop your strengths with us - and benefit from our comprehensive training program and language courses. In addition, individual seminars with external providers are possible if certain training programs are necessary yet unavailable in the general training catalog. Executive coaching: Regarding specific issues for executives, we offer training sessions in how to position oneself in the company, communication, leadership and negotiation management.
• Events: An important part of our culture is the exchange of thoughts and networking among colleagues. You have the opportunity to do so at numerous events, such as the Christmas Party, zeb.Uni, partner dinner or the "Beer & Pizza" format.
• Agile Working: In our agile workspaces there are no limits to your creativity. Whether SCRUM, Kanban or Design Thinking-this is where we transforms agile thoughts into action. You can find more about our offices here.
• Flexibility: To offer you the best possible flexibility, you don't have to live in one of our locations to work with us: in addition to appointments with clients, you can choose to travel to the office or prefer to work from home. For this reason, you can choose your location as well as your Practice Group - project groups for specific topics - and easily change them over time, if needed. Individual coaching is very important to us. For this purpose, you will be assigned a mentor, in our case a CDC - Career Development Counselor. If you wish, you can easily change your CDC.

Equal opportunities for all: we welcome applications from people of all backgrounds - regardless of age, disability, ethnicity, nationality, gender, religion, sexual identity or social background. As an employer, we rely on people who like to try new things, take responsibility and inspire others through their actions.
