Profile

Company profile

Zanders is a global financial consulting firm, deploying best in class minds, models and technology. We help our clients see unseen risks and capture hidden opportunities. Since our founding in 1994, we have been dedicated to providing our clients with innovative and practical solutions to their financial challenges. Over the three decades, Zanders has ensured that our clients are the victors rather than the victims of change, translating preparedness into the ability to propel their organizations, economies and the world forward. We believe that by combining our deep expertise with a personalized approach, we can help our clients achieve their goals and optimize their financial performance.

The financial sector is facing significant challenges due to low interest rates, the rise of fintech, and the growing complexity of regulatory requirements. New technologies are transforming the market, and profitability remains under pressure, creating an environment of heightened uncertainty.

Our Risk Advisory team combines deep expertise in financial regulations and advanced modelling with a strategic approach to risk management. We empower financial institutions to design and implement resilient risk frameworks that ensure regulatory compliance while preparing for future challenges and meeting stakeholder expectations.

From forecasting accuracy to model risk management and stress testing, our consultants utilize their expertise in using AI and machine learning to analyze large volumes of data more rapidly and with significantly less need for human intervention.

Student profile

At Zanders, we are looking for PhD or Master's degree students in Mathematics, Quantitative Finance, Physics, Econometrics, Computer Science and Engineering, or other applied sciences. We are looking for people who are ambitious, have strategic and analytical thinking, are creative, can adapt based on the needs of the project and have strong knowledge of Excel and programming tools such as Python or Spark. Any relative experience with quantitative projects is more than welcome.

Career opportunities

From your academic to your professional excellence, Zanders is by your side to provide support and guidance in your first consulting steps. Are you a 3rd year Bachelor's or Master's student that would like to gain valuable work experience next to your studies? As a working student, you'll collaborate with experienced professionals, apply your academic knowledge to practical scenarios, and earn while you learn.

Furthermore, you can take your academic research to the next level by working on your thesis with us, or with one of our clients! You'll have access to resources, data, and industry insights, all while receiving guidance from our experts to produce work that can truly make a difference.

Once you wrap up your studies and you are ready to start your journey next to field experts, you can join Zanders as a full-time consultant, in our Risk Advisory Group. You'll be part of a supportive team, receive mentorship and take on challenging projects that accelerate your career growth.

Application procedure

Your application process starts with an intake interview with HR, followed by two more rounds of interviews and a case study, in which you will be provided materials beforehand to prepare and later present in front of your interviewers. Usually the whole process takes a month to be completed. Interview rounds with the consultants are expected to happen in our office locations, either in Utrecht or in Amsterdam.
