Job Title: Credit Analyst
Organisation: M-KOPA
Duty Station: Kampala, Uganda
About US:
The scale and impact of our work is massive. M-KOPA is a fast-growing Fin Tech company offering millions of underbanked customers across Africa access to life-enhancing products and services. From our roots as the pioneer in pay-as-you-go “PayGo’” solar energy for off grid homes, we have grown into one of the most advanced connected asset financing platforms in the world, empowering a broad range of customers to achieve progress in their lives.
Job Summary: Working as a Credit Analyst within our FinTech Repayments and Portfolio Group offers the chance to collaborate with colleagues based in Europe and Africa solving real world problems that have a huge scale of social impact across Africa.
In contrast to other analyst roles at M-KOPA, that focus on understanding what did or will happen, the role of a Credit Analyst is to answer the “why did it happen” and “what should we do” questions. Which we bucket into three areas:
- Deep dives
- Testing ideas
- Modelling
Qualifications, Skills and Experience:
- This role requires a swiss-army-knife skillset as you will jump from one problem to the next and quickly adapt to different datasets, modelling paradigms and commercial contexts.
Skills
- Analysis of Digital Financial Services Data – end-to-end analytics workflow that includes defining critical metrics, experimentation, A/B testing, analysis, and building meaningful dashboards.
- Utilising – strong coding skills with Python to work with complex backend data.
- Squads – working closely with our Product and Analytics teams.
- Collaborating – very closely with our Analytics and Machine Learning engineers who are responsible for data orchestration and managing our machine learning models.
- Insights – delivering insightful presentations that help shape commercial decisions in our FinTech group.
- Problem Solving – advising and researching on complex business problems that affect our repayment cycles, staying up to date with industry trends and regulations.
- We have a data-driven approach to the incremental improvements of our products and services with a focus towards excellence.
M-KOPA is an equal opportunity and affirmative action employer committed to assembling a diverse, broadly trained staff. Women, minorities, and people with disabilities are strongly encouraged to apply.
