Job Description
**We’re on a mission to back the UK’s small businesses like no one else** 🚀

Small businesses are the backbone of the economy, and we’re here to help them win. We’ve built a platform that uses clever data to get them the funding they need in minutes, not weeks.

We’re a high-performing team that chooses to lift each other up. We challenge, we champion, and we have each other’s backs - because we know that when we stand together, we move faster and build better.
**The impact is real:** Last year alone, the businesses on our platform generated £7.2bn for the UK economy 📈 **Come and join a mission that matters!**

The role ⚡
----------
📍 London (Hybrid) | 🤝 3 days in the office | 💰 Competitive Salary + Benefits
This role sits within the Second Line Credit Strategy team. We provide independent oversight of credit risk models, strategies, and the data assets that underpin them. You will own a critical piece of our data infrastructure and play a hands-on role in making sure the team can do its best analytical work.
* The primary steward of the modelled datasets the Credit Risk team relies on daily: maintaining field logic, monitoring data quality, and ensuring the data as well as the dictionary remains accurate and fit for purpose.
* Creating new tables and pipelines as the team’s analytical needs evolve, working to a high standard of code quality and documentation.
* Proactively identify anomalies, breaks, and drift in the datamart, and investigate root causes before they affect downstream users.
* Be the go-to person for data questions from analysts and model validators, and will maintain clear documentation so others can self-serve confidently.
* Working closely with the central Data to align on tooling, infrastructure, and best practice, and promote those to the Credit Risk Team.
What we’re looking for 🌱
-------------------------
We value deep expertise, but a growth mindset and good energy are what really make our team click. We’re a group that chooses to lift each other up and think smart every day.
* A degree from a numerical or data-related subject, such as Mathematics, Computer Science, Engineering, Physics, or Data Science
* 1–2 years of work experience, or a recent graduate with demonstrably strong data skills
* Proficient in SQL, familiar with Github, and confident using Tableau to build and maintain dashboards
* Comfortable working independently on ambiguous, open-ended data problems with a methodical and detail-oriented approach
* A clear communicator, able to document logic and flag data issues in plain language for both technical and non-technical colleagues
* Familiarity with Python, dbt, Airflow, or AWS is a plus, so is MS Office in a professional setting
* Able to take ownership of redesigning departmental workflows, using AI to automate complex tasks and drive operational efficiency
* Competently able to Identify high-impact AI use cases and implement advanced prompting techniques to solve multi-layered business challenges
_We’re building a place where everyone truly feels they belong. Even if your past experience doesn't align perfectly with every requirement, we'd still love to hear from you._
**Why join us? 💜**

We back you to build an incredible career and by joining us, you'll be part of one of **The Sunday Times Best Companies to Work For 2026**!
