Do work that matters

As we continue our pursuit of NPS +30 we need to transform the way we engage with our customers and colleagues.  The Advanced Analytics Domain vision is to build the tools and capabilities needed within the group tapping into the promise of Generative AI as a key technology to solve those needs. 

This domain will power the creation of AI powered technical solutions that can support nuanced & personalised experiences in our customer and staff facing software requirements while using the same expertise to drive dynamic self-healing distributed workflow orchestration for service fulfilment and support units.  

We will enable the broader group to leverage broad AI capabilities through building domain owned platforms and frameworks for use across the bank.  

We will also be creating an ecosystem of shared practice and tools to help build solutions using  AI; adopting external practices as they evolve; contributing back to global best practice; and building internal IP accelerating our use of AI with risk management as a core capability of the system.
