Why we're doing this?

We're committed to Help Britain Prosper and become the best bank for customers. As part of this, we're redefining our data and digital capabilities, providing customers with personalised, simpler, continuous interactions across online, mobile and branches. Our digital platforms (public website, mobile & tablet app, and internet banking website) are where the majority of customer and colleague interactions with the bank take place. They are becoming increasingly sophisticated with the introduction of public API's, growing numbers of devices to access them from and evolving operating systems.

The Team

In the Customer Data Services (CDS) Lab, we have an opportunity to join the team at the heart of the Bank's data strategy, where Customer Data is owned and provided across the Group via APIs and strategic streaming technology to enable customer journeys across all the core channels - Internet Banking, Telephony and Branch. CDS prides itself on providing a collaborative environment where's everyone opinion is valued and crowdsourcing ideas to ensure we identify the right solution whatever the challenge. We provide data services to stakeholders across the Bank from integrating new Insurance Pensions & Investment (IP&I) systems into OCIS, to enabling the latest Mobile App functionality through providing access to our APIs.

As a Product Owner in the CDS Lab, you will have the opportunity and responsibility to engage and collaborate with those stakeholders giving you a truly cross-Divisional perspective on Group Data change roadmaps and strategy. The CDS Lab resides in the Data & Machine Learning Platform (D&ML). We provide and maintain all the personal and non-personal Customer party Data for the Bank.

This new platform is being built on public cloud technology and will involve several modern technology components including inbound data streaming services, a new customer database, new system of insight as well as customer APIs and outbound streaming services. The platform will also need the ability to stream data from on -prem systems and applications. A key offering from this new platform will be Customer Data Products and Analytical Customer Data Products to the different divisions across the Group.
