  • Identify and pilot appropriate analytics and AI/GenAI use cases to enhance CN&S risk insights and communications, partnering with stakeholders to ensure appropriate governance, controls, and documentation.
  • Stay informed of the latest industry trends and advancements in climate, nature, and social risk management within the financial services industry.

  • Ability to prioritize and execute tasks independently and as part of a team, with attention to detail and accuracy.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Excel, PowerPoint, and Word.

Preferred Qualifications, Capabilities, and Skills

  • Minimum 2 plus years of experience in the financial services industry, with strong preference given to candidates with a master's degree and/or background in credit risk or financial risk management. 
  • Knowledge of climate and environmental risk is highly preferred
