Job description

Salary - Competitive Salary (Depending on experience)

We are seeking a Risk Manager for an organisation specialising in asset-backed financing and transportation, including marine vessels, aircraft and vehicles. The client is looking for someone with breadth across credit, operational and market risk, rather than a specialist in just one risk area. The search is open to expatriate candidates as well as candidates based in the region.

As Risk Manager, you will provide independent, comprehensive risk opinions on financial transactions, conduct detailed financial analysis and stress testing, and support the continuous monitoring of the company's portfolio and counterparties in a dynamic, commercially focused environment.

Key Responsibilities:

• Provide independent risk assessments and opinions on financial transactions, covering credit, operational, market, project, FX and other relevant exposures.
• Analyse counterparties’ financial statements, cash flows and models; conduct stress testing and recommend transaction mitigants.
• Monitor clients’ financial standing, repayment capacity and collateral sufficiency.
• Perform portfolio analysis and quality control.
• Support Risk Committee processes, operational-risk documentation, and risk reporting.
• Work with other departments and support the Head of Risk on additional risk matters.

Requirements:

• 4-7+ years of relevant experience in risk analysis / credit risk / financial analysis, preferably within banking, leasing, shipping or asset finance.
• Solid understanding of financial analysis (BS/IS, ratios, cash flow), credit risk fundamentals, economic theory, macroeconomics and basic contractual law.
• Demonstrable experience across multiple risk disciplines, particularly credit, operational and market risk. Experience confined to one risk area is unlikely to meet the client’s stated need.
• Strong financial analysis, modelling and Excel skills; ability to communicate clear, independent risk opinions.
• Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel, Word and PowerPoint; knowledge of Python, VBA or SQL is a strong advantage.
• Professional certifications such as ACCA or CFA are preferred.
• Professional working proficiency in English.
