• The Behavioural Economics team is responsible for researching, collating and recommending global best-practice behavioural case studies from industry and academia, which in turn guide the design and development of new initiatives, implemented through multi-disciplinary teams and regular experimentation. The focus is on full spectrum of personal and business banking services and initiatives span across financial wellbeing, customer outcomes such as improving savings rates and credit performance, and internal productivity.
• This exposure to the value chain within financial services, from execution at the front line to developing, testing and scaling positive interventions. Success is dependent on cross-functional teamwork, which include digital channels, branch network, segment, product and marketing and the programme involves active learning and opportunities for various practical applications.
