Junior Data Management Consultant

Junior Data Consultant | Financial Services | Consulting | Brussels-based

At Projective Group, we’re looking for a data‑driven consultant who’s ready to help our clients in the financial sector strengthen the way they work with data.

If you’re someone who enjoys making complex information easier to understand and helping organisations get more value from their data, this role will feel like home.

Financial institutions want to scale AI responsibly. That requires trustworthy data, clear governance, compliant controls, and evidence that the environment is “AI‑ready.” As a consultant, you’ll work directly with banks, insurers, and other financial players to build that evidence and strengthen the way they organise, protect, and leverage their data.

You’ll collaborate with your team and with stakeholders from business and technology, supporting clearly defined workstreams within wider data and AI‑readiness programmes.

We are Projective Group, a leading financial services consulting firm where innovation and technology meet business. By partnering with top industry platforms and combining domain knowledge with hands-on data management expertise, we help our clients become truly data-driven.
