Job description

About Redding Ridge Asset Management
Redding Ridge Asset Management LLC ("Redding Ridge") was established and seeded by Apollo Global Management, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, "Apollo") in 2016. Redding Ridge has assets under management of approximately $44.5 billion as of September 30, 2025. Redding Ridge's primary business consists of acting as collateral manager for CLO transactions and related warehouse facilities in both the U.S. and Europe. Redding Ridge also provides structuring and advisory services to issuers across various asset classes.
Redding Ridge's Structuring & Advisory team plays a central role in managing Redding's ~$44 billion of debt across broadly syndicated CLOs and senior unsecured bonds, while serving as the primary structuring partner to Apollo's Private Credit and Asset-Backed Finance initiatives. Redding Ridge's mandate spans Apollo's 16 origination platforms, multiple issuance shelves, and a broad range of strategic partnerships. Since 2020, the team has helped structure and issue over $225 billion of rated debt. Our track record reflects our ability to combine deep structuring expertise across CLOs, ABS, RMBS, Corporate, and Fund Finance to consistently innovate and provide next-generation rated solutions, both public and private. We take a long-term, partnership-oriented view, and our success is a direct result of that approach.
We are continually seeking structuring & execution professionals who want to accelerate their careers working on some of the most innovative and consequential transactions in a meritocratic, collaborative environment. Team members have the opportunity to grow alongside partner platforms and portfolio companies while gaining exposure to new asset classes and rating methodologies, guided by one of the most accomplished structuring teams in the industry.
Primary Responsibilities
The Associate supports Apollo's global RMBS securitization platform across deal execution, analytics, and rating agency engagement, working closely with senior structurers, traders, and Apollo platform companies. The role demands a buyside structurer mentality - owning the risk and analytics on every deliverable. This is an opportunity to join a growing team as we scale the origination and issuance platform to the next level.
Deal Execution
  • Support senior structurers across RMBS transactions including agency, jumbo, Non-QM, CES, HELOC, and RPL/NPL
  • Drive execution timelines by tracking deliverables across all transaction parties
  • Partner with Apollo, Athene, and Apollo platform companies, alongside legal counsel, bank partners, and rating agencies, to drive deals from launch through pricing and close
  • Review and provide input on term sheets, PPMs, and offering documents

Analytics & Modeling
  • Build, maintain, and automate Intex and Excel cashflow models for rating agency and internal scenarios, including waterfall mechanics and bond cashflow analytics
  • Perform loan tape analysis: stratifications, data validation, and tape-to-tape diligence on designated collateral
  • Run securitization arbitrage on market pools and maintain the arbitrage blotter
  • Track securitization designated-loan performance, settlement, and diligence status; produce daily pricing runs to inform market risk
  • Maintain market color database and transaction comp sheets to inform arbitrage inputs and structural calibration
  • Prepare securitization structure reports for review by traders to inform pricing decisions on a daily basis or ad-hoc
  • Maintain and optimize current pools slated for securitization

Rating Agency & Documentation
  • Run rating agency models to derive collateral assumptions and stress scenarios that inform structural decisions
  • Prepare rating agency presentations and manage agency engagement through close
  • Support documentation review and structural negotiation alongside senior structurers and counsel

Marketing & Process
  • Prepare investor marketing materials, roadshow decks, and pricing supplements
  • Coordinate with banks, syndicate, and trading through pricing and closing
  • Contribute to post-close surveillance and ongoing portfolio analytics

Qualifications and Experience
  • 3+ years of RMBS structuring experience; ideal candidates will have experience working at investment banks, or other RMBS issuers
  • Proficient in Intex (dealmaker and calc) and Excel cash flow modeling, VBA a plus
  • Programming languages as a plus (C# and C++)
  • Familiarity with various mortgage products, how they are modeled and their associated economics
  • Working knowledge of agency methodologies across RMBS
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including ability to present complex information clearly
  • Highly organized with strong time management; proven ability to manage multiple workstreams simultaneously under tight deadlines
  • Thrives in a fast-paced, collaborative environment
  • Intellectually curious, detail-oriented, and receptive to constructive feedback
  • Bachelor's degree in finance, accounting, mathematics or a related field with strong academic credentials
