Senior Credit Analyst

• Work with the credit modelling team on scorecards and decisioning, including the use of German credit bureau data (e.g. SCHUFA and other bureaus) and income and affordability assessment.
• Own the end-to-end flow from application and decision to servicing, arrears and collections, and drive process improvements and automation along the way.

• Take responsibility for provisioning and expected credit loss (ECL) in accordance with IFRS 9, including methodology, staging and reporting, together with Finance.

Governance, risk and compliance

• Maintain robust governance, documentation and audit trails, and be the credit contact for auditors, partners, funding providers and, where relevant, regulators.
• Contribute to risk reporting and the internal control framework together with the CCRO.

Market and business analysis

• Analyse the German consumer lending market, competitors and customer segments, and provide decision material for the CCRO and leadership.

• Contribute to our European expansion by sharing learnings and frameworks across markets.

Who you are

You are an analytically strong, business-minded credit professional who is comfortable both building and running things. You can set the strategic direction and then dig into the data yourself. You thrive when there is no template to follow, and you take personal ownership of outcomes.

We believe you have:

• A university degree in Economics, Finance, Statistics, Industrial Engineering and Management or a similar quantitative field.
• Around 4-8 years of experience in credit risk, preferably in consumer lending, from a bank, consumer finance company, fintech or consulting. Experience from unsecured lending, debt consolidation or similar products is a clear advantage.
• Solid understanding of the full credit lifecycle: underwriting, portfolio management, arrears and collections, and loss forecasting.
• Hands-on experience with data analysis (SQL, Python/R or similar) and the ability to turn analysis into decisions.
• Knowledge of IFRS 9, ECL and provisioning, as well as unit economics and pricing in credit products.
• Good understanding of the German market and its regulatory landscape, or the ability to quickly build it. Experience of working with German credit bureaus is a strong plus.
• Full professional proficiency in English and German. Swedish is a plus, but not a requirement.

Personal qualities:

• You take accountability and are comfortable making decisions with incomplete information.
• You are pragmatic, structured and driven to build, but also care about long-term quality, governance and sustainability.
• You communicate clearly with both technical teams and senior leadership, and challenge constructively when needed.
• You want to grow into broader responsibility, including leading a team.

Why Plus1?

• You are the first credit hire in Germany and will shape how credit is done in a key market from day one.
• Short paths from analysis to action, and a direct line to the CCRO and leadership.
• We are scaling fast across Europe, and there is no ceiling for someone who delivers, including the chance to build and lead the German credit team.
• We help customers lower their costs and gain control over their finances, and we have already helped many save significant amounts.
