🤖 About the Role

In this role, you will work on impactful digital transformation projects across our leading banking and insurance clients.

• Support Delivery & Rollout: Assist in change management, user testing, training, and solution adoption across business units.

• Track & Report Performance: Provide insights and reporting on project KPIs, adoption metrics, and business outcomes to support strategic decision-making.

• Explore AI Opportunities: Identify potential areas where automation, data analytics, or AI-enabled tools (e.g., digital assistants, intelligent process automation) can add extra value to business processes.

📊 You bring to the table:

• 2–5 years of experience as a Business Analyst, preferably within the Financial Services, Banking, or Insurance sector (or consulting for these industries).

• Strong capability in requirements gathering, process mapping, and gap analysis.

• Solid understanding of core banking or insurance operational processes and digital tools.

• Interest/Nice-to-Have: Familiarity with or curiosity about AI and automation technologies (e.g., chatbots, speech-to-text, digital assistants, predictive analytics) is a strong plus.

• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.

🗣️ Language Skills

• Fluency in English AND either French or Dutch (proficiency in all three is an asset).

🤹 Other Skills

• Experience working with Agile/Scrum methodologies is a big plus.

• Proactive problem-solver with strong analytical and critical thinking abilities.

• Ability to work independently and autonomously in high-impact environments.

• A passion for continuous learning, growth, and keeping up with digital and tech trends.

🎁 What’s in it for you

• 💸 Competitive Compensation: An attractive salary and benefits package tailored to your experience.

• 🦾 High-Impact Projects: Work on high-stakes transformation initiatives with leading banking and insurance clients while enjoying a dynamic, entrepreneurial environment.

• 💿 Tech & AI Exposure: Opportunity to learn about and get hands-on exposure to modern Data & AI solutions as part of Sailpeak’s core DNA.

• 🫂 Mentorship & Growth: Close guidance from Directors and Partners with proven track records at renowned firms like Google, PayPal, Semetis, and Sia Partners.
