White Collar Factory 95009, United Kingdom, London, London

Senior Strategy Analyst

What you'll do

You'll join our Analytics department in one of our core teams: Marketing Strategy, Lending Strategy, Customer Management, Valuations, Financial Support or Fraud.

In this role you'll help us on our mission to Change Banking for Good by:

• Using your analytical skills to solve complex business challenges, finding patterns in the data and building new credit risk strategies, for example determining who is most likely to use a credit limit increase responsibly, the optimal account terms on a price comparison website or the best support for customers behind on payments.
• Optimising lending decisions to drive sustainable lending growth and improve customer experiences.
• Delivering strategic recommendations and bringing them to market - working with product, data and tech teams to deliver them.
• Ensuring good outcomes for customers by tracking and drawing insights from performance of credit decisions.

What you'll need

• Able to use technical skills to solve complex data problems. If you know how to use SQL and Python that's great. No worries if not – we will help you learn.
• Strong mathematical and critical thinking skills.
• An open mindset in your approach to change and personal development.
• Experience leading a project and working with people at every level to see it through.
• A university degree or equivalent.
• Experience in consulting or financial services.

Where and how you'll work

This permanent position offers the flexibility of being based in either our London or Nottingham office. We prioritise collaboration and connection, so you'll be based in office three days a week from Tuesday through to Thursday. To further foster teamwork, you'll also travel between offices twice a month. Mondays and Fridays are designated as company-wide virtual days.

What's in it for you

We're set up for growth and that means in our people as well as our business. You'll get plenty of opportunities to learn and develop your career.

We love to give our Strategy Analysts the opportunity to rotate to roles across various teams from Marketing and Lending strategy to Customer Management and Valuations. This is part of our winning formula for creating great future leaders, so this role is well suited to high performers looking for growth opportunities.

As well as that you'll get:

• Pension and bonus schemes
• 25 days holiday (and the option to buy up to 5 more)
• Private medical insurance
• Season ticket loans
• Cycle to work scheme

Enhanced parental leave

If you're based in Nottingham you can use a fully-serviced gym, subsidised restaurant and mindfulness and music; in London you can sweat it out on our rooftop running track. See our full list of benefits here.
