Over de rol

Als Consulting Manager Mortgages maak je verschil door een afgebakende werkstroom of een kleine tot middelgrote consultancyopdracht te leiden, waarbij je bedrijfsbehoeften vertaalt naar uitvoerbare veranderingen, terwijl je de oplevering, klantrelaties en teamprestaties managed. Je wordt een gewaardeerd lid van het Banking & Financial Services (BFS) Consulting team en werkt samen met ons ecosysteem van klanten, partners, start-ups, ontwerpbureaus, en met collega’s uit andere afdelingen van Cognizant.

In deze rol ga je

  • De scope, planning, risico's, kwaliteit en resultaten van de werkstroom managen.

  • Adviseren hoe vernieuwde processen rondom het adviseren van klanten over woninghypotheken het best geimplementeerd kunnen worden.
  • Processen beoordelen en herontwerpen, zoals advies, betaalbaarheid analyse, taxatie, acceptatie, contractering, servicing, achterstanden en aflossing. Dit doe je voor verschillende leningen, zoals nieuwe hypotheken, buy-to-let, herfinanciering, en voor verschillende hypotheek vormen: lineaire, annuïtaire en aflossingsvrije producten.
  • Doelstellingen vertalen naar proces-, data-, controle- en technologievereisten voor de hypotheek applicaties (origination & servicing), en het omliggende systeem landschap, waaronder CRM, workflow, documenten, API's en digitale kanalen.
  • De Nederlandse en EU-context toepassen, waaronder zorgplicht voor klanten en verantwoorde kredietverlening.
  • Stakeholders managen en consultants en business analisten coachen.
  • Voorstellen en accountplannen vormgeven samen met account teams.
  • Samen met collega’s herbruikbare oplossingen en inhoudelijke publicaties ontwikkelen.

Voor deze functie werk je doorgaans twee tot drie dagen per week op locatie bij een klant of vanuit ons kantoor in Amsterdam. Daarnaast bieden onze welzijnsprogramma’s ondersteuning bij een gezonde balans tussen werk en privé.

Deze werkafspraken gelden op de publicatiedatum en kunnen veranderen afhankelijk van het project en de behoeften van Cognizant en de klant. We maken de verwachtingen vooraf steeds duidelijk en bespreken eventuele wijzigingen tijdig.

  • Mondelinge en schriftelijke beheersing van het Engels.
  • Een bachelor- of masterdiploma in bedrijfskunde, finance, economie, technologie of een gerelateerd vakgebied, of gelijkwaardige professionele ervaring.

Wat je meebrengt

  • Het vermogen om stakeholders te managen binnen business, operations, risk, compliance, finance, data, architectuur, engineering en partners.
