  • Minimum of 3 years of hands-on credit risk modelling experience.
  • Strong knowledge of statistical methods and contemporary modelling techniques.
  • Proven ability to code in Python, R, or SAS.
  • Track record in managing projects or workstreams in a consulting or banking environment.
  • Excellent organisational, communication, and stakeholder engagement skills.
  • Experience mentoring junior staff and working in fast-paced, multi-stakeholder settings.
  • FRM qualification (advantageous).
  • What Success Looks Like

  • High-quality models built and validated on time and in line with client needs.
  • Junior team members grow under your guidance and technical coaching.
  • Strong client relationships and repeat business through trusted delivery.
  • Projects completed within scope, budget, and quality parameters.
  • Code that’s efficient, documented, and scalable.
  • What Awaits You

  • A dynamic role at the frontier of financial modelling and advisory.
  • Exposure to complex credit risk environments and global modelling practices.
  • A supportive team culture focused on mentorship and continuous improvement.
  • Opportunities to work across financial institutions of every scale—from startups to systemic banks.
