Job Description
The Client:
We’re supporting a fast‑growing financial services organisation that’s reshaping how corporate credit risk is assessed, structured, and supported.
They acquire large corporate loans from banks and back them with sophisticated insurance‑based structures, combining rigorous underwriting with technology, transparency, and a genuinely collaborative culture.
If you’re looking to take your credit expertise into a more innovative, forward‑thinking environment, this is a standout opportunity.
The Role
You’ll take ownership of analysing a diverse range of obligors, structures, and new transactions, while also helping to manage sector and regional exposures across a rapidly evolving credit portfolio.
What You’ll Be Doing
• Producing high‑quality credit proposals, including quantum and rating recommendations
• Assessing transaction structures, risks, and mitigants across a broad range of sectors
• Influencing deal structures and credit‑related terms with creative, commercially minded input
• Working closely with underwriting to review market data, peers, legal docs, and transaction information
• Supporting timely credit decisions and producing written analysis
• Helping shape the risk appetite framework and contributing to strategic planning
• Monitoring the portfolio, including exposure tracking and sector/regional limits
• Contributing to rating methodology, criteria development, and process improvements
What We’re Looking For
• 2+ years’ experience in credit risk analysis (bank, credit fund, or rating agency)
• Strong understanding of corporate credit; structured or leveraged finance experience is a plus
• Familiarity with traded products (derivatives/repos) beneficial
• Solid grasp of PD/LGD assignment
• Degree or relevant professional qualifications (ACII, FCII, CFA, etc.)
Why This Role Stands Out
• Work at the forefront of innovation in credit risk underwriting
• Real scope for growth, influence, and leadership
• A collaborative, modern culture where your ideas genuinely shape outcomes
• Exposure to complex, high‑value transactions in a sophisticated underwriting environment
• Strong earning potential with highly competitive annually bonuses.
