Flexibility

With our Flexible First working arrangements we empower our colleagues to work in a way that best suits them – meaning location doesn’t need to be a barrier. This role will allow you to primarily work from home with the occasional day in our Cardiff or Windsor office.

We understand that 9-5 doesn’t suit everyone, which is why also open to discussing flexible working arrangements. Whether you need to adjust your hours to fit your lifestyle or have specific needs that require a tailored schedule, we’re here to accommodate. Let’s work together to find a solution that works for you and benefits the team.

About your role:

We’re looking for an experienced Senior Credit Risk Analyst to join the Centrica Group C&I Credit Risk function. This key role requires strong financial expertise to conduct complex credit assessments across Centrica's global portfolio. You'll collaborate closely with stakeholders and operational teams, playing a vital part in managing credit risk proactively—supporting Centrica’s growth strategy while minimising the risk of bad debt losses.

This is an exciting opportunity to work on Centrica’s highest-value accounts, offering continuous learning and fresh challenges every day. No two days are ever the same, making this role both dynamic and rewarding!

Your key accountabilities will be:

  • Provide high-quality underwriting across Centrica’s global portfolio ensuring all high-value contracts are fully assessed with credit guidance.

  • Ensure credit decisions are compliant with Centrica credit policy rules, ensuring strong standards and controls are reviewed and maintained to minimise operational risks.

  • Monitor the Global I&C portfolio, giving early advice of any emerging risks and providing direction and guidance on mitigating actions.

  • Collaborate with key business unit stakeholders and operational teams to support their business strategy whilst promoting active risk management.

  • Prepare concise written credit reports which set out country risk assessment as part of the wider determination on the counterparty credit risk assessment.

  • Communicate confident robust credit recommendations to senior management and stakeholders.

  • Undertake internal rating and sector assessments using both proprietary internal rating tools and external tools to model risks.

  • Coordinate internal reporting and wider risk communications to individual business units, functions and the wider Centrica Plc.

Here's what we’re looking for:

We are looking for someone with an extensive experience in credit underwriting across both the UK and international markets. The ideal candidate will have strong analytical and report-writing skills, with the ability to make well-justified credit decisions and communicate them clearly. A solid understanding of credit ratings, risk methodologies, and security documentation—such as Security Deposits, Letters of Credit, Guarantees, and Credit Insurance—is essential. Experience working with multi-agency reference reports and Companies House data is also important.

We need an independent thinker and decision-maker who can contribute to the success of the Global Risk Team. Strong communication and presentation skills are key, as well as a proven track record in managing counterparty risks within large financial organizations. A passion for global economies, financial markets, and credit risk, along with experience in Credit Insurance, Banking, or the Energy sector, will be highly valued.

If you thrive in a collaborative environment and are eager to make an impact, we’d love to hear from you!
