Risk Executive - Major Client Group And Commercial Banking

Risk Executive, Major Client Group & Commercial Banking Risk

• Are you an aspiring or experienced financial services professional looking to further a career in credit risk management.
• Are you excited about the prospect of working with a collaborative team where diversity of background, experience and thinking is encouraged.
• Are you energised by the prospect of supporting a business with a strong growth mandate, focused on delivering innovative and tailored corporate lending solutions into the Australian mid-market.

We have several opportunities available in Sydney, across our various industry focused teams including: Property; Healthcare, Education & Professional Services; and Private Equity.

See yourself in our team:

The Major Client Group and Commercial Banking Risk team provides specialist credit risk management support, advice and decisioning for the Major Client Group (MCG) and Commercial Banking (CB) teams within CBA Business Banking. We are a national team, co-located in each of the major Australian cities with the origination and client management teams that we support.

We work closely with the business including direct connection with external customers to ensure the development of a thorough understanding of their businesses. This collaborative operating model must be balanced with the need to provide independent risk assessment. With the business heavily focused on growth, it can be a high-pressure environment; you must be able to work efficiently, be willing to back your own judgement and when appropriate, effectively and constructively challenge the business.

Additionally, you will be given the opportunity to contribute to key strategic initiatives for Risk Management and Business Banking, focused on refining industry level appetite settings and creating efficiencies in the end-to-end credit origination and lending process.

We're interested in hearing from people who have:

• Graduate or post graduate degrees in business or finance or related field.
• An ability to work autonomously and with absolute integrity.
• Strong interpersonal, communication and stakeholder management skills; you must be able to influence at a range of levels within the organisation and across both Line 1 and Line 2. This includes representing transactions at Credit & Pricing Review Panel.
• Experience in a credit risk management position, including exercising a delegation ($30.0m or more), with a proven ability to provide sound, commercial and consistent risk decisions that are in the customers’ best interest.

This is an outstanding opportunity to join a growing team that plays a critical role in CBA’s goal to become the number 1 Business Bank in Australia; if you’re ready for a challenge and confident that you can make a difference, please apply.
