an exciting /challenging journey with a clear mission. In this new team we encourage drive, initiative and new ideas.

We are a “Value Stream” (aka Value Delivery Engine) with group wide responsibility for e.g. Document Management (Structure & Governance). Our team responsibility is to secure that the bank has a relevant Document Management Directive and that it gets implemented swiftly and jointly with other units in the bank to enable everyone to handle and store document in a proper way.

-Where should we store what type of documents for how long for whom etc to be efficient across the bank and thorough out the document lifecycle

-What tools (e.g. within O365) and containers could/should we use to make our work more easy and compliant. (We don’t handle the documents ourselves, but rater set the structure and governance for how we group wide should work with documents)

We area a hybrid team with both Business-related task like defining/owning the Document Directive but also with more IT related responsibility where we evaluate, procure/source and maintain solutions when needed e.g. for certain contract storing. We then need to analyze needs, propose solutions incl POC/Pilot, coordinate sourcing/development activities and align with service providers/vendors as well as other internal teams.
