• An understanding of bank balance sheets, banking products and the broader financial services industry.
• Confidence working with large, complex data sets and turning detail into useful insights.
• Strong Excel capability, with SQL experience highly advantageous.
• A proactive mindset, with the confidence to identify issues, suggest improvements and look for better ways of working.
