  • Strong stakeholder engagement and communication capability.
  • Ability to operate independently and deliver practical, high-quality outputs.
  • Consulting, contracting, or project-based experience is advantageous.


Preferred background:

  • Enterprise data and analytics transformation.
  • Credit risk, IFRS 9, model validation, or regulatory modelling programmes.

Why join our talent pool:

You will be well positioned to hear about future project opportunities with leading banks, insurers, fintechs, and consulting organisations across South Africa.


We are particularly interested in building relationships with specialists who can bring deep domain expertise alongside hands-on delivery capability, helping clients respond to regulatory change, modernise technology environments, strengthen risk management, and make better use of their data.
