• You have a bachelor’s or master’s degree in a financial or economic orientation;
• You will graduate this year or have up to one year experience;
• You are fluent in Dutch and/or French, and have a good written and spoken knowledge of English;

• We offer extensive trainings, both on technical matters, as well on soft skills and project management;

• We are proud of our flexible working arrangements, and we will support you to build a successful career and deliver excellent client service without sacrificing your personal priorities.
