Credit Risk Analyst - French Speaking

Ebury Toronto Office - Hybrid: 4 days in the office, 1 day working from home per week

Your Role:

We are building out our Credit Risk function here in Toronto, Ebury’s main Canadian office, and you will be one of the first analysts dedicated to one of our most important geography.

Our lending is powered by business insight. The Credit Risk team undertakes a thorough, rigorous analysis of the SME businesses looking to use our services. This includes an assessment of their markets, financials, products, activities and cash headroom modelling.

You will be expected to prepare a submission to our Credit Committee with analysis and recommendations, as well as contribute to the development of automated risk modelling and adapt our processes to local markets.

The key is to add qualitative insight to credit decisions, including granting lines, monitoring them, and pursuing collections.

Your Specific Responsibilities:

• Support, and report to, the Country Head of Credit Risk;
• Undertake ad hoc requests from the Head of Credit Risk;
• Perform detailed credit analysis of prospects and clients for the purpose of granting trade finance and currency trading products, with a focus on financials, operations, and trading cycles;

• Liaising with managers across our other geographies to add insight or assist where necessary;

• A background in SME credit underwriting, experience in financial analysis, or a demonstrable understanding of how to assess an entity's creditworthiness;
• A clear, structured, and concise communication style with the ability to explain complex concepts in a coherent way;
• A solid understanding of Canadian accounting principles;
• An understanding of FX markets and associated vanilla products;
• An ability to work in Excel in a professional setting.
• Have a high level of proficiency in communication in both English and French.
