What you can expect:

  • The opportunity to establish yourself as a subject matter expert in your chosen field.
  • The chance to work alongside a variety of clients and consultants to build new skills quickly.

Your role

As a Consultant you are challenged to advise our clients in the financial sector about financial risk related complexities.

You will join our 'Financial Institutions' team, a team of 60 Financial Risk Management Consultants (95% have a quantitative background). This team focuses on financial risk related projects for banks, insurers and asset managers. You will advise our clients surrounding their financial risk models, policies and governance.

Four days a week you will work on-site at the client with a team of Zanders colleagues. On Friday you will work in Utrecht. On this day you will catch up your Zanders colleagues, join knowledge sessions and work on internal projects.

Furthermore, as a starting Consultant you will join our Zanders Talent Program. This program contains content related training, consultancy skills training and training to obtain you CFA level I.

  • Strong knowledge of Excel and programming tools.
  • Ambitious, strategic thinker, flexible to travel.
  • Fluent in Dutch and English.

What we offer in return

At Zanders you will of course enjoy attractive conditions of employment: a good salary, a nice number of holidays and a company bonus. But there is more to look forward to.

Will you be working at Zanders? Then we will offer you:

  • A good balance between work and free time.
  • Attend the Zanders Talent Program (training courses, consultancy skills training and training to obtain your CFA level I).
  • Flexible working hours, working days/workplace (currently mainly working from home. In the autumn of 2021, the office will move from Bussum to Utrecht Central Station).
  • An ambitious, service-driven work environment where innovation is the key.
  • A role with a lot of entrepreneurship, responsibility, autonomy and the possibility to develop yourself further in Financial Risk Management.
  • And on top of it, enthusiastic and helpful colleagues, good coffee, an annual Zanders trip to a (surprise) location in Europe and other outings and drinks!
