  • Present credit recommendations and risk insights to senior leadership.
  • Continuously improve internal credit risk frameworks, controls, and policies.


What You'll Bring


  • Degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics or related (CFA, CPA, CIMA, or Credit Risk certification is a plus).
  • 5-7 years' experience, including 2-3+ years directly in credit risk analysis or trade finance.
  • Advanced skills in financial statement analysis, risk scoring, and exposure management.
  • Familiarity with bank guarantees, trade finance instruments, and ERP tools like SAP, Oracle, or Moody's Analytics.
  • Strong judgment, analytical mindset, and stakeholder communication.
