Data, data, data!

Would you like to join a team that manages Nordea's Financial Crime Data, providing a solid and fit for purpose data foundation for the bank's financial crime prevention efforts? In practice this means we identify, ingest, transform, deduplicate, augment, and categorize data, and carry out all the necessary testing and maintenance to ensure it is of the highest quality and easy to use.

Do you have a can-do attitude and are you ready to take the next step as a Senior Business Analyst in Financial Crime Intelligence, Investigations and Analytics (FCIIA)?

Come and join the dynamic fight against international financial crime using the latest technologies and processes in a leading financial institution!
