• Familiarity with applying data science concepts to commercial, credit, risk, or financial use cases.
• Experience developing customised training solutions for corporate clients.
• Knowledge of learning design best practices across digital, blended, and instructor‑led formats.
• A desire to innovate by bringing fresh ideas to course design, delivery, and assessment.
• An advanced degree in Data Science, Statistics, Mathematics, Computer Science, Finance, Economics, or a related discipline.

Why Choose Fitch:

• Flexible Work Environment: Trainers are expected to attend the office on a regular basis when not fulfilling training commitments.
