Job description
Large credit risk datasets come in through SQL queries, ETL pipelines and SAS or Python code, and leave as Power BI dashboards and executive summaries for ADIB's Senior Management, Management Committees and Board. In between sits the analysis this Portfolio Analytics Manager is responsible for. Exposures are tracked by segment, sector, geography, counterparty, product, rating and staging, with close attention to concentrations, credit migration, IFRS 9 staging and ECL/provisions. When trends start to deteriorate, root-cause and driver analysis helps management act early. Credit risk regulatory reporting to the Central Bank of the UAE (CBUAE) also runs through you, along with support on inspections and supervisory reviews. Data integrity underpins all of it, so data quality rules, reconciliations and reporting controls are a constant focus. There is real scope to automate and standardise recurring reports and to build better analytical tools. Expect to bring 8 to 10 years in banking, ideally in Credit Risk Management, Portfolio Risk, Risk Analytics or Regulatory Risk Reporting, along with experience writing concise Board-level risk commentary.
