Our aim is to be an outstanding credit function, supporting a market-leading franchise and supporting new growth opportunities outside the UK.

This is an incredible opportunity for you to join a growing team where you'll play a central role in delivering our agendas, by applying your structured finance experience in support of UK/US infrastructure and in the transition towards renewable energy, with a clear focus on risk.

• Monitor and control credit exposures to identify increases to the risk profile, communicating with senior Risk colleagues and sanctioners as well as other interested parties as appropriate, and to maintain compliance with LBG policy and regulatory policy.
