Shape Credit Risk Strategy at a High-Growth FinTech

This isn't just another credit risk role. It's a chance to step into a scaling Series B lender where data drives every decision - from product design to customer engagement. With a unique lending product, high-calibre leadership, and rapid growth plans, this company is building a best-in-class risk function at the very heart of its business.

As a Credit Risk Manager, you'll design, test, and implement strategies that optimize for both growth and risk, grounded in NPV methodology. You'll work across teams, have direct exposure to senior leadership, and play a pivotal role in shaping the lending strategy that defines the company's future.

What You'll Do

  • Lead the development and optimization of lending and credit risk strategies, balancing growth with risk appetite
  • Apply NPV-driven decision frameworks to underpin business-critical strategies
  • Work hands-on with SQL and Python to interrogate data, run models, and build insights
  • Partner cross-functionally with product, operations, and leadership to implement changes at pace
  • Take the opportunity to grow into leading a small, high-performing analytics team as the business scales

What You Bring

  • Experience solving credit risk or lending strategy problems in a consumer finance environment
  • Proven ability to drive strategic decisions using data and advanced analytics
  • Strong foundation in NPV-based decision-making
  • Proficiency in SQL (daily use) and ideally Python
  • A track record of impact and performance in previous roles
  • Strong academic background (STEM or quantitative field a plus)

Why Join?

  • Early impact: Your work will directly influence the growth and risk trajectory of the company
  • Career growth: Opportunity to step into leadership as the team expands
  • Reward: $170,000 base + bonus + equity
  • Culture: A lean, collaborative team where data is at the center of everything
