The ideal candidate will be a seasoned credit risk professional, educated to degree level with strong interpersonal skills. This is a senior role and the ability to influence at senior management level is important. Bank credit analysis skills including a sound understanding of political and macroeconomic issues are taken as read. Previous financial services experience would be advantageous.
