Job Description

This role sits at the heart of a modern, value-adding second line team.

You will also lead our team of talented credit risk professionals. This is a senior role requiring strong technical judgement, pace, and the confidence to influence decision-making at critical growth points.

  • Own, design and continuously evolve the Credit Risk Management Framework, ensuring it supports strong decision-making, clear governance and proportionate control in a high-growth environment

  • Act as a key second line partner for new and evolving products, providing early risk input to product design, credit policy and decisioning to ensure robust controls from launch
  • Ensure credit risk remains within appetite during periods of rapid growth, identifying emerging risks, concentrations and control weaknesses and driving appropriate escalation and mitigation
  • Deliver targeted credit risk assurance activity, including thematic reviews and deep dives focused on areas of highest change or risk
  • Support effective risk governance through high-quality committee papers, clear articulation of risk trade-offs and practical recommendations
  • Build strong, constructive relationships with first line teams while maintaining independent judgement and challenge
  • Line management of a team of credit risk professionals

Requirements

  • Significant experience in credit risk roles with strong second line, independent oversight or governance accountability
  • Proven ability to design, own and operate credit risk frameworks in growing or changing environments
  • Strong data and analytical capability, with experience shaping dashboards, MI and insight for senior audiences
  • Experience across consumer and secured lending, ideally including personal loans, motor finance and mortgages
  • Confidence operating in fast-paced, high-growth settings with evolving products and strategies
  • Strong judgement, communication skills and the ability to influence senior decision-makers

Nice to have

  • Experience within a non-bank, specialist lender or fintech environment
  • Exposure to credit model governance, scorecard oversight or portfolio stress testing
