As a Solution Analyst you will support the Pension Solutions Lead in all aspects of the delivery of our clients’ investment solutions in Germany and potentially other European countries.

The role requires you to be curious and questioning. You need to have the desire and ability to help us improve our products, process and materials, so we can give each client even better outcomes.
