## Role details

## Who we’re looking for

We’re looking for a Credit Analyst to join the EMEA Credit Research team in London. You will be responsible for fundamental credit research into bonds and loans from European corporate issuers as directed by research management. Experience covering the utilities sector would be an advantage.

## About Schroders

We’re a global investment manager. We help institutions, intermediaries and individuals around the world invest money to meet their goals, fulfil their ambitions, and prepare for the future.

We have around 4,000 people on six continents. And we’ve been around for over 200 years but keep adapting as society and technology changes. What doesn’t change is our commitment to helping our clients, and society, prosper.

## The team

Schroders Investment Management's Credit Research team undertakes corporate credit analysis of a wide universe of non-government bond issuers. Our aim is to provide benchmark beating performance to our portfolio managers by providing both accurate fundamental credit research and relative value recommendations to be adopted into by our team of portfolio managers. The Credit Research team consists of around 35 research specialists, each undertaking industry and issuer analysis in three broad regions – America, EMEA (Europe, Middle East & Africa) and Asia. The London-based EMEA team currently consists of thirteen analysts covering investment grade, high yield and loan issuers across the full range of industry sectors.

## What you’ll do

The basis of the role is to be able to analyse and understand the business, financial and sustainability risk profiles of the companies under coverage as well as the legal structure of their debt securities. An overall assessment of risk and valuation of these factors will then be communicated to the Schroders credit PMs using our proprietary framework. The successful candidate will be expected to work as part of a team with our entire desk to deliver alpha generating investment ideas for clients.

## The knowledge, experience and qualifications you need

  
- Experience in a single name investment environment
  
- Proven investment and/or financial analysis experience at the corporate entity level
  
- A strong academic record, most likely a first degree or upper-second with postgraduate degree and/or demonstrated progress through the CFA system
  
- Demonstrated research capability in educational history and/or previous work experience

## What you’ll be like

  
- Strong analytical skills and ability to make sound judgments
  
- Exceptional communication skills
  
- Ability to work with minimal supervision in a very dynamic and timeline sensitive work environment
  
- Well-developed sense of teamwork and cooperation
  
- High level of accuracy and attention to detail
