Overview of the Department/Section
  • The Credit Analysis team is the Bank's first line of defence, sitting alongside CIB bankers to promote an optimal risk / return on the banks' lending opportunities.
  • The department comprises 50+ individuals organised across five sector-oriented teams. Each credit analyst is responsible for managing the risk exposure of an EMEA wide portfolio. Analysts work with Front Office counterparts on live transactions and portfolio monitoring to identify and mitigate risks associated with the counterparty, deal structure, documentation, industry and macroeconomic environment.
  • CAD supports analyst progression through a commitment to learning and development, combining on the job experience with internal and external training, including sponsorship of CFA studies.
  • The department draws team members from a wide range of backgrounds, including candidates with accountancy, rating agency and other banking experience.
Main Purpose of the Role
  • The credit analyst's role focuses on the preparation of forward-looking fundamental analysis in support of client onboarding, live transactions, facility renewals and annual reviews.
  • The analyst will manage an individual portfolio and, over time, be expected to develop both a sector expertise and deep individual counterparty understanding, facilitating a comprehensive top down and bottom up risk review process.
  • The role includes actively monitoring portfolio performance, undertaking regular qualitative and quantitative corporate analysis, conducting client due diligence, developing forecast models and ultimately making recommendations on both internal credit ratings and transaction proposals.
  • The role sits in the Utilities & TMT sector team, with the portfolio covering counterparties mainly across Western European jurisdictions.
Key Responsibilities
  • Participate in credit due diligence as part of the portfolio review process, as well as in the onboarding of new clients and following key risk events.
  • Quickly assess pertinent credit issues, raising salient points to the correct stakeholders and analyse the risk reward trade-off.
  • Work diligently to develop technical skills and industry knowledge related to the role, working towards sectoral and/or jurisdictional expertise.
  • Ensure accurate and timely compliance with internal rules and reporting procedures.
  • Demonstrate ability to multi-task and manage ever changing and often conflicting priorities.
  • Undertake specific country and industrial sector research and other department/ bank wide project work as appropriate.
  • As directed support the development of other junior staff members assigned to the team.
Work Experience
  • Experience in fundamental credit analysis gained in either a bank, asset manager or rating agency environment. There should be an emphasis on credit analysis in the context of a transaction or event.
  • Alternatively, an ambitious newly qualified ACA looking for a career in banking will be considered.
Skills and Experience

Functional / Technical Competencies:
  • Experience working with IG and NIG counterparties. Utilities and/or TMT sector coverage would be viewed favourably, albeit not mandatory.
  • A strong quantitative background with a solid understanding of accounting and financial data analysis.
  • A clear and concise business writing style reflecting a capacity to distil critical information from large data sources.
  • Ability to conduct thorough due diligence and form a forward-looking view using cash flow modelling and stress testing.
  • A good understanding of loan and ISDA/CSA documentation, market risk and key credit protections is beneficial.
Education / Qualifications:
  • Professional qualifications desirable (e.g. CFA, ACCA, ACA, ACT or similar qualifications). There is scope for MUFG to sponsor professional qualifications such as the CFA.
Personal Requirements
  • A proactive, motivated approach.
  • The ability to operate with urgency and prioritise work accordingly.
  • The capacity to manage large workloads and tight deadlines.
  • Strong decision-making skills, with the ability to demonstrate sound judgement.
  • A structured and logical approach to problem solving.
  • Excellent attention to detail and accuracy.
  • Strong numerical skills.
We are open to considering flexible working requests in line with organisational requirements.
