Description
As part of the response to the onsite inspection from the regulatory bodies, many related to "test" findings have been addressed which need immediate solutions. We have created a dedicated track on the VIZIER programme (Nordea's core compliance programme) in order to provide solutions that on the one hand will meet the ECB and FSAs requirements but also will improve the test situation within Nordea. The VIZIER programme is currently the most important and high profile in the whole Nordea and the attention but also expectations to us are very high. In our stream we are focusing on the applications that belong to the Capital Markets business area and support the whole trade life cycle.
We are looking for a Project Coordinator of a Senior Level (not a Project Manager) who will join the management team of the project and support the Project Manager, Project Coordinator, Solution Architect, Test Manager and Analysts on the planning and delivering the solution "on time" and with the right quality. The Project Coordinator will be focusing on our Mainframe applications that are operated, maintained and used in Finland, Sweden, Norway and Denmark. 30 Business Critical Mainframe Applications we have and therefore you will be interacting with the different application teams that are part of the project through the gap analysis, the "to-be" architecture design, the implementation, testing and follow up phases of the project.
You will also be supporting the Project Manager on administrative and follow up tasks and be responsible for planning workshops with the relevant stakeholders, timely escalate issues, follow up on the progress and keep track of the deadlines. Travelling to Helsinki, Stockholm and Oslo will be required and the primary location will be Copenhagen.
In simple words, we are looking for a key resource.not someone to do paperwork* that will support us on this long journey which is full of challenges, issues to be resolved, tough decisions to be taken but also fun and exciting.
