Senior Data Analyst, Credit Risk

  • You should have worked in a technical role, with expert SQL skills and a passion for analysing data in the credit risk domain.
  • Individual contributor role where you will have full ownership of your analytics and get exposure to a wide variety of challenges that you might not get at a bigger organisation.
  • Ability to work flexibly, with two team-connect days in the office each week.

Write your story with Zip

When you join Zip’s Risk team, you will be putting your name to a variety of business-critical initiatives attached to our ANZ strategy, including uplifting our credit risk management, fraud control and credit decisioning capabilities.

With a broad remit across credit risk strategy and decisioning, forecasting, portfolio analytics and controls monitoring, our Risk Management & Data Science team is a key strategic interface between the business and a varied range of both internal and external stakeholders. 

Working with world-class platforms and given the freedom to experiment and uplift your analytical and modelling capabilities, you’ll be a part of a flat structure and a close-knit team responsible for improving the commercials related to arrears and repayments.

Interesting problems you’ll get to solve

  • Complete scorecard model review, including monitoring and establishment of a governance framework
  • Assess portfolio performance through trend analysis of key metrics such as revenue, profitability, and arrears rate
  • Take ownership of a broad remit, covering the full end to end analytics cycle across your credit risk analytics portfolio
  • Provide insights and recommendations to executive management
  • Work closely with the broader business to achieve key outcomes on credit risk initiatives. 

What you’ll bring to the team

Zipsters work on a broad range of initiatives, and our skills and experiences all look a little different. What really matters to us is that you’re a great fit with our four Values, and have a desire to learn and grow. 

So whether you meet some or all of the desirable attributes below, we’d still love to hear from you:

  • Proven experience working as a risk/ data analyst, ideally working across unsecured lending products
  • Ability to influence decision makers with data, proactive approach to drive results and improvements across credit risk.
  • Solid SQL skills
  • Exposure to solving problems in the collections space is highly regarded
  • Experience delivering data visualisation dashboards across business critical insights (we use Tableau).
  • Experience using DBT would be great but not an absolute requirement as we will help you learn!
  • An aptitude for identifying and managing risks. Whether you are a People Manager or an Individual Contributor, we are all leaders at Zip, therefore effective risk management is important to how we run our business and part of all our roles.
  • Our values in your DNA: Customer First, Own It, Stronger Together and Change the Game
