Research Science Analyst - Finalta

Job ID: 93229
  • San Jose


Do you want to do work that matters, alongside supportive leaders who will help you grow faster than you ever thought possible? Are you a creative problem-solver who is energized by challenges? You’ve come to the right place.

Who You'll Work With

You'll work in our Costa Rica office with our Finalta team. Building on more than fifteen years' experience working with leading banks and insurers, Finalta combines performance benchmark data and best-practice knowledge from 250 financial institutions in over 50 countries to generate insights on how to achieve superior performance.
Annual benchmarking provides clients with a unique management tool to objectively assess performance against peers and quantify opportunities for improvement.
Our best-practice cases illustrate how to close performance gaps and give clients a roadmap to reach world-class performance while reducing the time, cost, and risk of change.

Your impact within our firm

Throughout our 6-month benchmarking study cycles, you will work with multiple clients simultaneously. You will have high levels of responsibility from the start as your role on the project team is to be the owner of the dataset, engaging directly with your clients to gather, validate and assess the quality of the data before working with your team to explore hypotheses and generate insights from your analysis.
Our benchmarks are typically repeated annually giving you the opportunity to build specialist expertise in a specific topic, market or client. You will have a specific portfolio of clients to manage, each cycle, and will often interact with other teams working on the same benchmark in other regions.This connection to our wide and diverse team will expose you to different perspectives, innovative ideas, and global trends, further enhancing your professional growth and development.
This role does not involve a lot of travel or time spent on client sites but we may meet clients in person for the presentation of our findings.

Your qualifications and skills

  • Recent graduates or up to 2 years of experience in data analysis, ideally in a financial services environment (specifically banking / insurance), strategy, market research or consultancy roles
  • Exceptional analytical skills and problem-solving capabilities
  • Interest in building knowledge in financial services
  • Ability to manage time to produce high quality work to deadlines
  • Great interpersonal communication, presentation and client-management skills
  • Fluent in English and Spanish
