Manager Credit Risk

Elevate your career, perform when it counts: become part of our global financial consulting evolution!

Zanders is an international consultancy specialising in Risk, Treasury and SaaS solutions. From our origins in the Netherlands we now work across Europe, the United States, the Middle East and Asia. Within Risk we cover every financial and non-financial risk type, including ESG and AI, for banks, insurers, lenders and asset managers. As a Manager in our Financial Risk team in Utrecht, you are the person who carries credit risk engagements: the one who can be handed a piece of work and be trusted to land it.

That takes two shapes. On smaller engagements you run the project by yourself, from first client meeting to final deliverable, whether that is a model validation, strategic credit risk support at a lending institution, or an assignment with one of our international clients. On larger model development programmes you take the day-to-day lead of a team of one to three consultants, with a director or partner alongside you.

You stay hands-on. Credit risk modelling at Zanders means writing and reviewing production-quality Python, working in Databricks on client data, and being able to open the code rather than only the documentation. You will also coach consultants on their development beyond the projects they are staffed on, and contribute to how the practice builds its credit risk expertise.

Your background will be in a consultancy specialising in financial risk, or in the model development, model validation or risk management function of a bank or lender.
