My top priority is to develop both professionally and personally. This is a definite benefit of being in a Group as large as Danske Bank. In five years I believe I will be in a management position with either staff or product responsibilities. I hope that I am on my way to a higher level. In career terms there is room for all here. Respect for the individual is enormous, and for their private life too. I know that I looked for a job in a first-class, well-run, solid Danish company but I have been really surprised by how well the company looks after its employees.

From Aalborg University to it business developer
I applied for a job in Danske Bank because it is a solid and well run company in which you are also allowed to try other things. You are given space to test new ideas and develop products.
In my job as an it business developer I am connected with different projects in which, throughout the process, I can operate as a unifying element between it and business. Together with my colleagues in the project team we work on analysing business problems; we specify solutions and then test and implement the final versions. My primary task is to discover what the real requirements are and how they can be accommodated.
Influence over future work practice
For me, an important element of the work process is the analysis, evaluation and recognition of what is best in terms of our values and quality objectives. When the organisation requests products and services – for example, the integration of the newly acquired Finnish bank’s many card options onto the Danske Bank platform – my job is to identify the real requirements so that this can be translated into particular solutions that I can take further in the IT department.
The satisfaction of daily work is simply knowing that my contribution results in a really good quality product that can influence a large group of customers.
