– Anna Putria, Managing Principal Corporate Strategy, ING

Vacancy: (Senior) Consultant – Corporate Strategy

Consultants are part of a multidisciplinary team of 2-4 members and work closely with internal clients and stakeholders (such as Innovation, countries for best practices, Risk or Finance) and (sometimes) external consultants. They are responsible for analyzing, composing and delivering a detailed solution to the issue at hand.

The diverse team (50% are non-Dutch) has executed 100+ consulting projects over the last 6 years and worked on a variety of topics:

  • Market Entry Strategy – supported the Management Board in assessing the opportunity to enter new countries
  • Country Review – assisted several country CEOs on building their mid- to long-term strategy to increase performance
  • Distribution Strategy – supported country leadership to design retail branch strategy
  • SME Lending – supported launch of innovative product by defining value proposition and market strategy
  • Client Segmentation – created segmentation model based on client needs/behaviors using predictive analytics

Landing spot
Due to the strong team culture, the Corporate Strategy department consistently scores in the top 10% of departments for workplace satisfaction across the bank. Team members receive extensive support to ensure fast track career development. Therefore, the team has an excellent track record in both core strategic projects (NPS of ~90%) as well as in placing alumni in senior positions throughout the business.

Best of both worlds
In the Corporate Strategy department, job satisfaction usually comes from the high impact of projects and recommendations. ING encourages a healthy work / life balance so that members of the team have the energy and drive to go the extra mile for clients when needed. Given the highly international domain of the Group, the Consultant is expected to travel from time to time, but typically within the EU and only for a couple of days, with plenty of room for individual preferences.

ING works with Top of Minds to fill this vacancy.
