Job Description

Senior Credit Risk Analyst – Consumer Lending

Hybrid, Cardiff

c.£60,000

Identify Solutions are searching for a Senior Credit Risk Analyst to join an ambitious and growing lending business backed by a leading financial services group. If you're looking to step into a role where you can truly influence credit strategy, work across multiple product lines, and collaborate with highly engaged stakeholders — this could be the one.

You’ll be part of a second-line credit risk oversight team that’s hands-on, analytical, and proactive — not your typical “policy review” role. You'll dig deep into performance data, help shape credit policies, and provide independent challenge across the business.

 

 What You'll Be Doing

  • Providing independent oversight across unsecured personal loans, motor finance, and mortgages
  • Partnering with first-line credit and pricing teams to ensure lending aligns with policy and risk appetite
  • Analysing Data to identify emerging trends and improvement opportunities
  • Helping enhance credit policies and controls across all lending products
  • Presenting clear, actionable insights to stakeholders at all levels

 

What We're Looking For

  • Proven experience in consumer credit risk (e.g. acquisitions, collections, strategy, portfolio)
  • Strong data analytics experience
  • Able to independently investigate, challenge, and communicate risk issues
  • Background in retail/consumer lending

 

What’s On Offer

  • c.£60,000 base salary
  • Strong benefits package
  • Hybrid working – ideally 1–2 days/week in Cardiff - more flexible options open for discussion
  • Exposure to a range of lending products and senior-level stakeholders
  • Join a small, collaborative team where your voice makes a real impact

 

If you're looking to take the next step in your credit risk career and want more influence, variety, and challenge — we’d love to hear from you.
