Credit Analyst - LBO Underwriting

Manage and monitor GIPDs European credit portfolio, with core responsibility for BSLBSL exposure via a Separately Managed Account (SMA) and expanding coverage of European DL investments (acting as fund LP) and mid-market LBO co-investments.

Act as primary reviewer and challenger of credit inputs from the BSL Asset Manager for SMA investments, adding independent credit judgment and ensuring alignment with the Banks risk appetite and portfolio objectives.

Lead the development of DL capabilities, including evaluation of DL funds, GP platforms, and underlying LBO exposures, supporting both investment and gatekeeping decisions.

Apply strong credit underwriting skills (including mid-market LBO analysis) alongside a portfolio manager mindset to optimise risk-return across BSL, DL funds, and co-investments.

Provide concise, high-quality reporting and portfolio insights to Deputy HoD, HoD, RMD, UGM, and GM to support risk management and strategic decision-making.
