Job Description:
To reinforce our Finance Business team within Rainbow, we are looking for an Application Manager, who would be working on a fixed term contract to cover a maternity leaver.
As our Application Manager (Rainbow), you will be responsible for:
• Business as usual (BAU) run of the quarterly Securities Holder Statistics (SHS). This is a data set (not a report) of the groupwide inventory of bonds & listed stocks/funds and has to be delivered to the ECB. A lot of (cross) checks are in place, so automation & tooling will help you in your challenge. More info on Securities Holdings Statistics | ECB Data Portal (europa.eu)
• Key responsibility is delivering this output on time and with excellent quality. You don’t do this alone, but in very close cooperation with finance colleagues (both from Local Finance of our different subsidiaries as from Group Finance)
• Before and after this BAU activity, the opportunity is taken to analyze issues in previous runs in order to improve or finetune the process by next run
• You'll also participate in the analysis of new requirements by the regulator for this impact and will over time take the lead in the implementation of them, from the drafting of the requirements to the validation of the solution created by the responsible teams, before releasing the code towards the production environment.
• As your expertise increases, you will get the opportunity to grow and step into more complex reports and projects. The more eager you are to learn, the faster you will grow.
• Ensuring smooth cooperation between business and ICT.
• Working in line with the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe) to deliver the highest business value for our clients
Key competences that will help you succeed:
• You have an analytical mindset and are able to think logically. You have the ability to complete tasks with a high level of precision, even under time pressure.
• You can cope with tasks to be executed on a specific working day according to an available run book. In case of issues, you are flexible to meet the legal deadline. This implies also that you will work during the quarterly closing following a specific calendar.
• By preference, you have experience with financial analysis, controlling and/or the world of securities or in data modelling.
• You are able to work with a variety of individuals and groups in a constructive and collaborative matter. Most of your contacts will be remote, your team is spread over different locations.
• Language: you are fluent in English, all others are bonus
• You are willing to learn all about finance business processes and/or IT processes and applications within KBC. If you already have some knowledge or notions on such processes in the context of the financial sector or KBC in particular, this is definitely a plus
• Tooling: Excel & SQL are musts, WKFS is a plus
