Descripción del empleo

Lead an experienced credit team, stay close to the deals, and own the decisions that matter.

My client is an established, well funded fintech lender helping small businesses grow. They’ve built a reputation for smart, data led credit decisions and a genuinely great place to work, and they’re now looking for a Credit Manager to lead their credit team.

Why this role stands out:

• Real influence. A lean business of around 100 people, where you’ll work directly with senior leadership and your decisions shape the portfolio
• Credit that matters. Assess businesses on how they actually trade, using real time data, not just box ticking
• A bonus that means something. 10% on top of base, with a genuine share in the company’s success
• People stay. Strong retention and a leadership team that has grown with the business
• Balance that works. CBD office, one work from home day a week, and a supportive, collaborative culture

What you’ll be doing:

• Leading and developing an experienced team of credit analysts
• Owning the daily queue and keeping decisions moving
• Being the escalation point on complex and larger deals
• Making the tough calls and explaining them clearly to Sales, brokers and senior leaders
• Balancing growth, loan profitability, credit policy and risk appetite
• Using workflow and quality data to spot trends and fix root causes
• Turning policy changes into practical guidance the team can use

What you’ll bring:

• Proven experience leading credit analysts or underwriters
• A current or previous DLA in commercial or SME lending
• A strong understanding of how a business makes money: cashflow, margins and profitability
• The presence to lead people who know their stuff, and the confidence to say no and stand by it
• Clear, concise communication with stakeholders at every level
• A highly analytical mindset and comfort with Excel and reporting
• A relevant degree in Finance, Economics, Business or similar

If you’re a credit leader who still enjoys being in the detail, this is a rare chance to lead a strong team in a business where your work is seen and rewarded.

The package:

$160k - $190k plus super, a CBD office with one work from home day a week, and a team that gets things done.
