Working at Nordea
Our mission is making it possible – for our customers, for our shareholders and for our employees. As the leading financial services group in the Nordic and Baltic region, we offer a wealth of opportunities and a high degree of specialisation.
Our activities are varied and extensive, with a skills base that covers all aspects of banking: retail banking, private banking, investment banking, corporate banking and asset management and life.
We also offer a range of job opportunities within financing, business law, marketing, HR, IT and much more. This is one of the reasons why we are able to give our customers a high and tailor-made service and our employees a wide range of different career opportunities.
At Nordea you will have the opportunity to work with experienced colleagues in local and international environments that promote the development and exchange of skills.
We are a services provider and as such committed to people. The way we meet our customers is crucial to our ability to remain on the leading edge in financial services.
All service operations start and end with a genuine interest in people and a desire to listen to and understand other people’s need – customers as well as colleagues. Our ambition is to make it possible for you to develop and grow professionally as well as personally living up to our value: It’s all about people.
Your future at Nordea
Your professional and personal development is important and at Nordea we provide you with the tools to build your own career. Still, you are responsible for your own development. In our experience, people who are self-motivated are the most committed and satisfied employees.
We respect each employee as an individual and we aim to provide you with all the opportunities and support your need to fulfil your potential. That is the best possible starting point for your development.
We are committed to people
Being informal and straightforward is the cornerstone of our corporate culture. We consider openness and dialogue as essentials in our aim to nurture new ideas and improvements. This means that your opinions and views will be valued in selecting the best solution for our customers.
In English, our corporate language, it is easy to see that Nordea derives from “Nordic” and “idea”. In other words, we are similar enough to be able to exchange ideas, yet different enough to be able to inspire one another.
At Nordea you will meet people with different competencies and cultural backgrounds; generalists as well as specialists. This provides us with a good foundation on which to build a great bank.
We want to reflect both our customers and society at large. And we give equal opportunities both between the sexes and between ethnic groups.
We are one team
As an employee at Nordea you will be a part of a team. We recognise your individual achievements, but no one can achieve our goals by themselves.
Working in a team provides synergies, energy and possibilities for learning. Combining all our different approaches, competencies and views enables us to deliver the best financial solutions to our customers. One Nordea team means that we are all part of the same delivery chain to customers with the ultimate goal to sell, deliver and produce products and services that match our customers’ needs. We team up and work together across the organisation, we show trust and we assume accountability.
A flexible working life
We recognise that people have different needs in different phases of their lives, and it is important to us that there is a sensible balance between private and working lives.
We have different ways of making sure this happens. We aim to organise your work in a way that secures mutual flexibility. We strive to create flexible working conditions on a day-to-day basis. And, not least, we offer very good conditions regarding leave of absence.
