Head of Business Credit Portfolio & Strategy

Following the acquisition of Virgin Money, Nationwide is on a bold journey to build a credible, relationship led Business Bank, combining strong customer advocacy, deep sector and local knowledge, sustainable growth and disciplined risk management aligned to the benefits of being a modern mutual.

In support of this ambition, we now have a leadership opportunity at the heart of our Business Credit Risk function, helping to shape how Nationwide manages credit risk across its business lending portfolio.

As Head of Business Credit Portfolio & Strategy (MRT), you’ll lead the development and ongoing evolution of our Business Credit Risk strategy, risk appetite, lending standards, assurance and portfolio oversight. You’ll bring together portfolio, sector, market and economic insight to give senior leaders, Executive and Board governance a clear, forward-looking view of risk and help support sustainable business lending growth. Reporting to the Director of Business Credit, you’ll lead a multidisciplinary team of specialists, providing independent insight and constructive challenge, working closely with Business Credit, Business Banking and colleagues across Finance, Model Risk, Compliance, Internal Audit and Technology.
