Evolving customer demands, new technologies, big data, and new service models are more than ever pushing traditional financial services providers into uncharted territory, redefining the entire industry. At EY we go further than just helping our clients to deal with these changes: we are driving the change, and shape the financial sector of the future.
Financial Risk consultants help financial institutions identify and measure risk exposures, but also ensure that the organizations are well-equipped to pursue risky, yet profitable opportunities by linking risk to pricing. Beyond regulatory driven risk activities (IRB, IC/LAAP, Recovery planning, IFRS 9 ..) ; they have become equal and necessary partners of the business and their working environment. For example, they play a key role along the entire lending life cycle, identifying and quantifying risk using big data and advanced analytics. We are looking for young graduates who are motivated to operate on this cross-road of technology, modeling and regulation, not afraid to use their interpersonal skills in order to solve our clients’ risk management challenges and enable better risk management.
