Let’s talk talent
You have talent. Ready to make impact. We know. We also know that making impact starts with that first contact between likeminded people who have the same drive to shape their future. We see you, with your skills, personality and dreams. Now let’s take it to even greater heights by means of one of our talent programs for master’s and Ph D graduates.
We are Mploy Associates, a talent focused consultancy firm ready to make not only our clients’ teams successful but also you. Your talent, our focus.
More specifically?
We are a consultancy firm specialized in the areas of data, finance, and analytics and work on a variety of projects like investment analyses, data engineering, quant modelling and much more. Our clients are banks, insurance companies, asset managers and we are still expanding.
We help our clients build successful teams by providing the right skills, talents and know-how at the right place and time and develop ourselves continuously to stay successful. We believe that investing in talent through proven methods always pays out. Today we are proud to say that we are an international driven company with more than 100 people and many top-tier clients who share the same vision.
How do you fit into this vision?
You will work as a Data Manager for one of our clients with a special focus on your own development through one of our Talent Programs. Our Talent Programs are designed to accelerate your career from entry level to medior+ level within 24 months. By means of certified training courses, coaching and intervision sessions our employees follow an above average steep career curve. Successful graduation in our Talent Programs usually results in a permanent medior+ or senior position at one of our clients or where it becomes your responsibility to keep the team successful.
Your activities as a Data Manager
You will be responsible for organising, storing and analysing data as efficiently as possible, while upholding security and quality standards. Understanding the data needs of your stakeholders and informing them regularly is at the core of this position. This includes organising stakeholder meetings to discuss and present project results and follow-up actions. As well as preparing management reports and presentations to senior management regarding progress and data quality issues. Your day-to-day responsibilities include:

• Implementation of data quality checks, development of data quality dashboards, and monitoring of data quality KPIs. You do this in Excel, Power BI or more advanced software if desired;
• Investigating and documenting dataflows and data lineage;
• Analysing data sets and systems to understand the root cause of data issues;
• Performing trend analyses to guarantee the completeness and accuracy of the data;
• Visualizing data through the development of interactive dashboards.

On average you work 36 hours a week on a client project and you spend 4 hours a week on your own personal, professional and technical development in one of our Talent Programs.
What are we looking for?
We are looking for graduates with different data-related related backgrounds, experiences, and passions. It speaks for itself that you are ambitious, self-reflective and dare to be confident in an authentic way.
Furthermore, you are energized by stakeholder management and are well adept at gathering reliable information. You use this in combination with a consultive mindset to make our clients more successful.
