• Structure transactions based on your knowledge of risk management.
• Ensure timely completion of credit risk assessment within our standard SLAs.
• Assist colleagues with any risk related queries.
• Participation in additional company projects, contributing your expertise in credit risk.
• Identify high risk accounts and liaise with internal/external stakeholders as appropriate in highlighting these accounts, making recommendations as appropriate.
• Support Collections Team where appropriate with recovery cases.
• Offer recommendations of best practices and provide coaching to junior colleagues.
• Develop and enhance credit processes that improve and streamline our lending proposition
Requirements:
• 3+ years working in a similar underwriting role, preferably in alternative finance.
• Strong knowledge of credit risk and an ability to "think outside of the box."
• A thorough understanding of UK SME's.
• In depth knowledge of financial accounts with the ability to thoroughly analyse P&L accounts, Balance Sheets and Cashflow Forecasts.
• You're excited by the chance of being part of a growing organisation and relish the opportunity to make your own mark.
• Strong communication and negotiation skills.
• High level of accuracy and attention to detail
What you'll get in return
Package will be bespoke to the successful applicant but expect to receive:
• Higher than average salary based on skills and experience
• 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays
• Pension Scheme
• Hybrid working
