Graduate Credit Risk Analyst

As Graduate Credit Risk Analyst, you'll join our Credit Insights & Reporting team as a data analyst. You'll use SQL, Python and Tableau to turn large volumes of customer and portfolio data into clear insight that helps the business manage credit risk. This is a data and analytics role, not a credit vetting or underwriting role: you won't be assessing individual customer applications. It is also a business partnering role from day one: you'll work alongside one of our business divisions, help them understand what the data is telling them and support better decisions. With structured training and support from experienced analysts, you'll build the technical and commercial skills to grow your career in both data analytics and credit risk. Success is measured by the quality of your insight and how well you help people use it, not by the volume of reports produced. Your week will include writing SQL queries, building and maintaining reports and dashboards in Excel, Tableau and Python, and investigating trends in portfolio performance, defaults, recoveries and bad debt. You'll also work closely with operational and commercial teams, sharing your findings and turning data into clear, practical recommendations. You'll be based in our Crewe office, Monday to Friday, 8.30am to 5pm. Your daily responsibilities will be...

• Business partnering: Build strong working relationships with the operational and commercial teams in your division, learning their goals and how credit insight can help them.
• Communication: Explain findings clearly and simply, in writing and in person, to colleagues who are not data specialists.
• Reporting: Produce, maintain and improve regular credit reporting, making sure it is accurate, on time and useful.
• Automation: Learn to build automated reporting using Python, SQL and Tableau, with support from senior analysts and heads of department.
• Insight: Analyse large datasets to find trends and changes in portfolio performance, defaults, recoveries and bad debt, and explain what is driving them.
• Learning: Grow your coding and data skills alongside your knowledge of credit risk and our products, and bring curiosity and new ideas to the team., Global Female Health Policy & Female Health Champions
