• learn the governance and controls in place to prevent errors or losses

This role is ideal for candidates interested in finance/treasury, risk, and compliance. In the Innovation & Analytics team you'll focus on using data analytics, technology, and automation to support audit and innovation initiatives, as well as work on developing dashboards, automating testing, and implementing AI solutions. This role is ideal for candidates passionate about technology, analytics, and continuous improvement. During your application, you'll be asked to indicate which team aligns best with your interests and skills.

You'll have plenty of opportunities to develop new skills and make contacts along the way. If you like challenges, enjoy learning and want to work where no two days are the same, this program is for you.
