Job Description
Ebury's Credit Risk team in London is hiring a Senior Credit Risk Analyst to assess private market funds that want to use Ebury's services. The role is hybrid, with four days in the office and one day working from home each week.
The analyst will review each fund's markets, mandate, record and asset quality. Work includes preparing credit submissions, presenting recommendations to the Credit Committee, contributing to automated risk models and adapting processes to local markets. The role covers private equity, venture capital and credit funds. It also involves reading limited partnership agreements and private placement memoranda to understand leverage caps and derivative restrictions, recommending and approving credit limits and margin levels that suit each fund's liquidity, and monitoring the portfolio through NAV movements and asset quality.
The posting suits someone with three to five years working in fund or leveraged finance, who can weigh a general partner's record and the strength of its investor base. An undergraduate qualification covering finance, economics, accounting or a similar quantitative subject is expected. Knowledge of ISDA and CSA documentation, fund structures and waterfall mechanics is important, as is experience reading fund financial statements and LPAs. Credentials like CFA, CAIA or FRM are seen favourably.
