Business Analyst / Data Analyst| BCBS239 Credit Risk Programme | Major Dutch Bank

A major Dutch bank is looking for a senior Business Analyst to support its Common Data teams in delivering a time-critical BCBS239 credit risk data roadmap. You will cover 16 credit risk use cases, Definition of Default delivery and the onboarding of newly acquired entities into the bank’s Finance & Risk data platform. You will work across Finance, Risk, IT and data teams.

About the role

You will join a 30-person team of business developers and IT engineers, working in the sub-team focused on production runs and platform stability. This is an ops-driven role for someone who picks up issues right away and solves them independently.

The team works in an international, English-speaking environment, in the office in Amsterdam two days a week. The assignment runs until the end of March 2027, and both payroll and freelance are possible.

You will:

• Run the monthly production process: load and validate data, spot anomalies, deliver evidence for data quality controls and inform stakeholders when data is ready
• Investigate production and data quality issues directly in SQL and trace whether they come from source data or recent releases
• Lead the business and IT alignment and testing when connecting new entities and migrating platforms
• Propose and implement practical improvements to automate and stabilise the platform

About you

• Senior experience as a Business Analyst, Product Owner or data product lead in Finance & Risk data at a bank
• Strong hands-on SQL experience, used to investigate and resolve data issues
• Experience working on a data platform in an operational or run role
• Ops mindset: you take initiative and work independently
• Background in financial risk data, preferably credit risk (e.g. AnaCredit, loan tapes, IFRS 9)
• Knowledge of BCBS239 and data quality controls
• Ideally experience with Databricks, Azure, Python or Power BI
• Ideally experience onboarding new entities or migrating data platforms in a banking environment
