financial technology talents are sought after
From the perspective of recruitment objects, there is less and less demand for traditional posts in banks, which are replaced by science and technology posts.
The Financial Technology Department of Bank Of Communications Co.Ltd(601328) head office and the Information Technology Department of Bank Of Jiangsu Co.Ltd(600919) head office recruit talents separately. ABC financial management also emphasizes that those with complex professional backgrounds such as economy, finance and information technology are preferred.
Insiders said that in the direction of financial technology, the banking industry now prefers compound talents with “financial experience + scientific and technological academic background / thinking”. With the further deepening of bank digital transformation, such talents will continue to be sought after.
“The financial technology post in the bank is definitely worth a try. It is a rare opportunity to learn and practice financial knowledge within the banking system.” A person who once worked in a bank’s financial technology post said.
The bank’s emphasis on financial science and technology talents also stems from the continuous promotion of bank digital transformation. “The investment of technical personnel is an important consideration for commercial banks to implement financial technology.” Some banking analysts said.
In terms of talent introduction, in addition to open recruitment, the bank and its financial technology subsidiaries have continuously increased the training and cooperation of financial technology talents in recent years.
According to the data, in 2020, the investment in information technology of bank and insurance institutions exceeded 240 billion yuan, with a year-on-year increase of 21%, and the number of information technology personnel was close to 150000, with a year-on-year increase of more than 17%.
Recently, the general office of the CBRC issued the guidance on the digital transformation of the banking and insurance industry. The guidance points out that we should vigorously introduce and cultivate digital talents.
The guidance clearly encourages the selection and employment of professionals with scientific and technological background to the board of directors or senior management. Pay attention to the introduction and training of financial, scientific, technological and data talents, and focus on professional fields such as data governance, architecture design, model algorithm, big data, artificial intelligence and network security. Actively introduce digital operation talents, improve the ability of financial ecological operation, and strengthen the incentive measures for leading talents and core experts.
