Job Description

Finance Traineeship

Finance: vital for our company

Sound financial advice is vital to safeguard our company’s future. The ING Finance professionals are strategic business partners for the management team. You don’t need us to tell you how important it is to supply the right financial information at the right time. Confidentiality is crucial because our work is inherently related to sensitive information.

The Finance traineeship: route to a future role as Chief Financial Officer

The Finance traineeship prepares you for a future role as Chief Financial Officer (CFO). This track enables you to fine-tune your knowledge and skills in forecasting future results as well as analyzing historical ones. You learn how to work with complex computational models and to report to the management team. Finance trainees are unique in having the opportunity to be mentored by one of our current CFOs.

Your first year: two challenging projects

Your HR trainee manager helps you to choose your first rotation, which lasts for six months. You set to work on a concrete finance-related challenge.

Just some examples of assignments include:

• Preparing Wholesale Banking’s monthly reports for head office.
• Supporting a Management Accounting team for ING in the Netherlands.
• Getting involved in an ECB stress test.
• Putting together the figures for the reports for shareholders and supervisory bodies.
• Helping to prepare the annual accounts for a part of ING.

During your first rotation you also work together with fellow trainees from other tracks on a group assignment to tackle a challenge that is relevant to our business. This gives you the opportunity to expand your network within ING, fine-tune your stakeholder management skills and learn more about yourself at the same time. The group receives guidance from an external coach.

It’s up to you to arrange your second assignment. Now it’s a matter of using your network and your own initiative. We encourage you to gain international experience during this six-month rotation, if the circ*mstances allow it. For example, previous Finance trainees have worked in Brussels, Milan, Istanbul or Sydney.

Your second year: your third assignment and starting in a permanent role

You’re still in charge, your third rotation is arranged by you. Your HR trainee manager will help you in the decision making; will this last rotation be done to deepen knowledge of your business (within your track), of do you decide to do this rotation within a different track? Imagine: as an Analytics trainee you can gain experience as IT Engineer or learn about one of our products or processes within the Wholesale Bank. Or as Retail Banking trainee, you can do a rotation within Risk or Operations & Change.

A permanent role lets you go deeper into the finance discipline right from the start. You expand your knowledge and hone your skills, and work on your further development within a specific business line such as Management Accounting or Financial Accounting, or perhaps you prefer to work at corporate level in Capital Management, Regulatory Reporting, Policies & Procedures or Finance Bank Treasury.

Training and coaching

The point of being a trainee is to develop yourself and learn a lot, and we offer you every opportunity to do so. Your HR trainee manager coaches you during your three rotations and helps you to get the maximum benefit from your traineeship. During your traineeship, you participate in two Global Trainee events together with all ING’s trainees – across all tracks – from around the world. The first event is at the start of your traineeship, the second event is towards the end of your two-year traineeship. The events will be held live once circ*mstances allow this and are focused on developing your professional and personal skills.

During your traineeship you follow a flexible training program. For every traineeship we set one mandatory training, with content which is very relevant to your part of the bank. On top of this, you can follow two training courses that you’ll choose, which match with your rotation or permanent role.

Contributing to achieving ING’s goals

Are you keen to help ING achieve its goals by supplying reliable financial information? Do you enjoy digging deep into historical data and are you able to interpret what it means for the future? Do you understand how important the figures are for the bank’s strategy? Would you like to become a valuable business partner for the management team in the future? If so, the Finance traineeship is ideal for you!

What we’re looking for:

• You have a Bachelor’s/master’s degree in economics, Finance or Business Studies (with strong quantitative profile)

• Fresh graduate with very good academic standing or those with maximum of 2 years of work experience.

• Excellent analytical skills and problem solving

• You have an innovative take on banking and an unconditional drive to turn your ideas into reality • You are enthusiastic and consider the interests of our customers and your colleagues

• You act with integrity and responsibility.
