This position will own the use of credit insurance as a key credit risk mitigation tool, working closely with the global Credit team, trading teams, Finance, Legal, and the external insurance market.

• Develop insurance capacity for complex transactions, counterparties and challenging jurisdictions
• Manage policy documentation, reporting and compliance obligations
• Negotiate policy wording, terms, exclusions and conditions to ensure appropriate and enforceable coverage
• Lead claims processes including notification, documentation, Legal coordination and recovery management
• Build strong relationships across the global credit insurance market and support knowledge development across the wider Credit function

Your Profile:

• 5+ years' experience within credit insurance broking, underwriting or a closely related credit insurance function
• Strong technical knowledge of single-risk, whole-turnover, portfolio and structured credit insurance products
• Experience covering energy, metals, commodities or structured trade finance exposures is highly advantageous
• Strong understanding of policy wording, exclusions, conditions and claims mechanics
• Established relationships across the credit insurance market, including brokers and underwriters
• Strong commercial judgement, communication and negotiation skills
• Able to work independently, manage complex negotiations and operate effectively across different international time zones
• Hands-on, proactive and entrepreneurial in approach, with fluent English
