The successful candidate will be the lead analyst responsible for assigning new credit ratings to CLOs and other esoteric structured credit transactions. This pivotal position demands a high level of expertise in both broadly syndicated and middle-market/private credit-related transactions, with a focus on analytical leadership, client engagement, and mentoring junior analysts. The role also involves preparing and presenting detailed committee memos, authoring credit rating reports, and assessing legal, regulatory, and counterparty risks associated with structured credit ratings. Applicants must have an undergraduate degree in a relevant discipline and at least 7 years of experience in structuring or analyzing CLOs, rated warehouses, and CLO-like financing facilities.
