• You will have experience either working in a management consulting capacity within financial services and /or the banking industry (corporate, commercial or challenger banks), with a focus around providing credit risk management solutions
• A proven quantitative background is essential with your practical experience stemming from working within the European financial services industry and its application to risk management in banking
• You will have strong Wholesale IRB background (essential) with hands-on experience in IRB credit risk model development, and a strong understanding of IRB approval process and existing regulations are a must, along with familiarity with both local and relevant international regulations within financial services e.g. PRA/ECB supervision

• With presence in many financial centres within London (UK), UAE, Germany, Spain, Middle East, Netherlands, South Africa, my client is a boutique firm with a demonstrable focus around Credit Risk Management, modelling, data analytics and model validation etc.
• Working with a range of innovative, ambitious, growing and forward-thinking Financial Services businesses, my client differentiates itself from the larger and more unwieldy consultancies by offering more client-specific solutions and impressing through the willingness, knowledge and experience of its staff - hence the requirement to actually build and develop risk-based models as opposed to just audit or review them (as is typical in larger Management Consultancies)
• Being truly joined up in their holistic client offering, future career opportunities for their consulting staff are excellent
• My client primarily operates a remote working policy, along with client work completed on-site when required
