Kickstart Your Career in Analytics – International Talent Programme

Are you a recent graduate or early-career professional with a passion for data and insights? Join our 18-month International Talent Programme (ITP) in Analytics and accelerate your growth into a future expert or leader in the field.

You’ll work alongside experienced analytics professionals, gain hands-on experience in strategic projects, and deepen your understanding of the financial services sector.

Choose Your Path – Explore Our Analytics Domains

The International Talent Programme (ITP) in Analytics consists of three rotations, each lasting six months. Throughout the 18-month programme, you’ll explore different areas of data-driven banking and build a strong foundation for your future career in Analytics.

Our Analytics track offers exposure to a wide range of domains, such as:

• Customer Intelligence & Personalisation
• Risk & Financial Crime Analytics

During your rotations, you’ll contribute to impactful projects that support ING’s ambition to lead in data-driven financial services. Whether you’re working on pricing strategies, fraud detection, or developing new data products, you’ll be part of a team using machine learning and advanced analytics to make banking smarter and more transparent.

Many trainees also choose to do a short-term assignment abroad (e.g. Amsterdam, Spain), adding international experience to their journey. After completing the programme, you’ll transition into a permanent role tailored to your interests.

Each path is designed to help you grow into a future expert or leader in Analytics. Along the way, you’ll receive tailored training, mentorship, and the opportunity to earn certifications that support your development.
