I am representing a leading international financial market infrastructure organisation, recognised for its role in global payment and settlement systems. My client is seeking an experienced credit risk professional to lead the development and validation of sophisticated credit risk models that support the organisation’s risk management framework.

The successful candidate will be responsible for designing, implementing, and validating models that assess the creditworthiness of a diverse portfolio of financial institutions and sovereigns. You will work with large, complex datasets to develop innovative modelling approaches, ensuring robust risk measurement and compliance with regulatory expectations. Advanced proficiency in R is essential, as you will use this language extensively for model development, testing, and validation. The role also involves close collaboration with internal stakeholders and external partners, presenting findings, and providing clear, actionable recommendations to senior management.

The ideal candidate will have a strong academic background in a quantitative discipline and significant experience in credit risk model development within a banking or financial market infrastructure environment. You will be comfortable managing multiple projects, leading analytical teams, and communicating complex risk concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences. This is a unique opportunity to contribute to the ongoing evolution of risk management practices within a dynamic, high-impact organisation. Applications will be managed through our dedicated recruitment platform for senior roles.

If interested and if you meet the above criteria, please apply for the above role.
