Valuations Specialist

This role sits within the valuation function and is focused on the independent valuation of private, illiquid credit positions.

The core of the role is oversight of the third-party valuation providers who value these positions independently:  challenging their outputs, understanding the drivers behind them, and owning the internal view that sits alongside. You will build and maintain the valuation models that support that challenge, assess valuation risk across the book, and attend and present to Valuation Committee.
