Banks are redefining what it means to work in financial services. From AI research hubs to patent-driven innovation, banks are becoming a sought-after destination for top tech and AI talent. It’s encouraging to see this shift. As financial services continue to prioritize AI, machine learning, and data-driven insights, the sector is offering tech talent opportunities to solve meaningful, large-scale challenges. I had the pleasure of speaking with The Wall Street Journal's Isabelle Bousquette earlier this year, and it’s great to see her thoughtful reporting bringing this topic to life. For those interested in the intersection of finance and technology, this is a worthwhile read. #Banking #Banks #BankingTalent #Talent #Workforce #AI #FinancialServices #Accenture #AccentureBanking https://lnkd.in/eSkc97wm

💡 Is Financial Services Becoming the New “Cool” Industry? 💡 As financial institutions continue to leverage AI, data, and cutting-edge tech to transform their organizations, we’re seeing a seismic shift in the types of talent they're seeking. The once-traditional financial sector is rapidly embracing the innovation mindset that’s made companies like Google and Meta household names. Banks and financial services firms are now competing for top-tier AI, data, and technology talent, as they push the boundaries of digital transformation, automation, and customer experience. With the demand for tech-driven roles at an all-time high, is financial services finally joining the ranks of the "cool" industries? 📖 Read more about how the financial sector is redefining itself in this insightful WSJ article: https://lnkd.in/ef5gRR6S TRC Talent Solutions, we specialize in connecting top talent to leading financial institutions, ensuring they have the expertise needed to lead in this exciting new era of financial innovation.

The coolest jobs in tech might now be in banks, as firms like JPMorgan Chase and Morgan Stanley redefine financial services with cutting-edge AI and machine learning. For tech talent seeking impact, stability, and prestige, the financial sector is becoming the next big frontier. https://lnkd.in/gg5VemjK

The problems we solve in banking go back centuries and are intricately linked to the history of mathematics and computation. It's an endlessly fascinating set of challenges.

A new WSJ article starts with the following sentence: "Working in a bank’s technology department might finally be as cool as than landing a job at Google." Stop laughing. According to the article, "For tech and AI talent, jobs at financial services companies are more desirable than they have ever been. The attraction gap between working at a tech company and working at a bank is shrinking." The article goes on to quote Morgan Stanley's head of artificial intelligence and machine learning in its wealth management technology division, Capital One's chief scientist and head of enterprise AI, and Bank of America's head of the bank’s AI hub. You'll note that all of the firms cited are megabanks, not community-based financial institutions. The problem: There has never been a time when community FIs need in-house tech talent more than they do now. The reality is--and has always been--that smaller FIs simply don't have the resources (or the pay scale) to pay outrageous salaries for one-off tech talent. Which is why banktech vendors must come through for their clients (or "partners" as they like to call them). Some have touted "innovation labs" over the past few years, but the new need is to make tech 𝘵𝘢𝘭𝘦𝘯𝘵 available to their client base. https://lnkd.in/eCihfSSA

Banks are thinking about their AI philosophy now more than ever… but not about the BIG tech talent crunch they’re going to face. There’s a lot of talk about banks hiring Chief AI Officers or junior technical talent to own AI initiatives. While it’s a step in the right direction, banks often face an uphill battle when competing on a hiring front with Big Tech firms like Facebook or Amazon. Why? These companies offer: - Flexible work schedules - Comprehensive benefits packages - A reputation for innovation To compete effectively for top AI talent, banks may need to rethink their approach. It’s not just about compensation but also about transforming perceptions around technology and innovation within banking. Some ways banks can attract and retain top talent: - Offer competitive perks that rival tech companies - Create a culture of innovation and rapid change - Thinking carefully about how tech hires sit in the org chart Would love to hear thoughts from others in the space!
