Description
At Engine by Starling, we are on a mission to find and work with leading banks all around the world who have the ambition to build rapid growth businesses, on our technology.
Engine is Starling's software-as-a-service (SaaS) business, the technology that was built to power Starling Bank, and two years ago we split out as a separate business.
Starling Bank has seen exceptional growth and success, and a large part of that is down to the fact that we have built our own modern technology from the ground up. This SaaS technology platform is now available to banks and financial institutions all around the world, enabling them to benefit from the innovative digital features, and efficient back-office processes that has helped achieve Starling's success.
We draw upon our experience as knowledgeable bankers, and best in class technologists to become the chosen option for these banks, and preferred partners for leading consultancies.
As a company, everyone is expected to roll up their sleeves to help deliver great outcomes for our clients. We are an engineering led company and we're looking for someone who will be excited by the potential for Engine's technology to transform banking in different markets around the world.
Hybrid Working
We have a Hybrid approach to working here at Engine - our preference is that you're located within a commutable distance of one of our offices so that we're able to interact and collaborate in person.
Travel (including international) may be necessary depending on our current balance of clients at a given moment.
About The Role
This role is pivotal within Engine's Product & Technology Proposition function, in making sure we understand the client needs, sell the right thing, and build the right product.
We're looking for a highly practical all-rounder with broad banking, technology, product, or technology consulting experience to join our Client Consulting team. At Engine, Client Solutions Consultants take the lead on our early stage projects, helping prospective clients understand how Engine could support their needs and defining the overall scope of a given programme.
Our Client Soltuions Consultants lead these projects from an Engine perspective, getting as close as they can to our clients, understanding their context and ambitions, and translating those into an achievable Engine scope, all while also ensuring the day-to-day of the project ticks over.
We're looking for versatile, adaptable individuals who want to make an impact and enjoy the challenge of a varied and collaborative role. We're particularly interested in those who have managed technology "Discovery" projects or held functional leadership roles within large technology transformations / core banking projects in retail or commercial banking.
You'll enjoy problem solving, getting to the detail, and understanding how clients can make the best use of our product, whilst working with our Product Managers and Engineering teams to design ways to improve it. Your work will focus on building great client relationships, client-facing requirements gathering & solution design, and managing fast-paced multi-disciplinary project teams.
