What does this job entail?
How effectively do we manage our risks? How could we do it even better? The Internal Audit Department helps all KBC Group entities find answers to these questions. As part of this team, your focus will be on the processes within the Financial Markets domain (trading, sales, controlling) and market risks (trading market risks, counterparty credit risks).
As an auditor at KBC, you can count on a stimulating, intellectually challenging working environment - not least because of the constantly evolving legislative framework. You will learn quickly and gain unique insights.
What do we expect from you?
- You will perform audit assignments end-to-end to a high standard and respecting deadlines. Depending on the scope of the assignment, you will be a member or leader of a team of fellow auditors.
- You will identify operational risks in processes.
- You will make a case for why a particular risk has been insufficiently mitigated.
- You will back up your argument with data.
- You will present the insights gained from the audit assignment to line management. In doing so, you will persuade them to make change to internal controls or to how a particular risk is managed.
- When necessary, you can count on the support of the management team.
Your key strengths?
- You have a Master's degree in a relevant field such as Economics, Commercial Engineering or Business Administration.
- You have a keen interest in the financial markets, supervisory frameworks, modelling, risk management and related fields.
- You have experience working in a dealing room, in asset management, brokerage, (market) risk management, a back office setting or in financial control. Are you familiar with Python? That is a definite bonus, but not essential.
- You have an eye for detail, but don’t allow yourself to be distracted from the bigger picture. You quickly grasp the essence of a process or a legal or other text.
- You have strong communication skills in English and Dutch. You are for example able to write a clear report or deliver a persuasive presentation in either language.
- Like your colleagues, you derive satisfaction from achieving goals as a team.
- Your approach is result-oriented, critical and pragmatic.
What can we offer you?
- With us at KBC you can expect superb onboarding, very friendly colleagues and a great atmosphere at work.
- Throughout your career at KBC we will encourage you to continually grow as a person and as a professional. You can follow training courses to further hone your hard and soft skills.
- Our offices are easy to reach by public transport, and if you prefer you can work from home or another head office some of the time.
- Flexible working hours help you to create a good work-life balance.
- We will offer you a permanent contract and a competitive salary, with additional non-statutory benefits. Sounds familiar? Of course, you read this in every job ad. KBC makes the difference for you with an extensive flex package. Too extensive to explain here. We will be happy to discuss the various benefits – large and small – with you during your interview.
Can you help us make the difference?
At KBC Audit, you will have a unique opportunity to experience the different processes within the bank up close and actively contribute to improving them. You will become part of a warm and knowledgeable team that is always ready to support you.
