About the Role:

We are looking for an Associate or Vice President Underwriter to join our Credit Analytics team in New York.

• Analyze various projections and strategize on proactive loss mitigation strategies
• Prepare in-depth credit memoranda detailing re-underwriting and related due diligence, as well as performing shorter form re-underwriting analyses
• Present findings to Global Head of Asset Management, Senior Credit team and other senior members of the Asset Management and Originations teams
