    Credit Manager — Origination & Portfolio Growth

    Pesapal

    LocationNairobi, Kenya
    Typefull time
    Posted1 day ago

    The role

    Job Description

    You will grow Pesapal’s merchant lending book by converting transaction data and credit scores into more merchants borrowing, borrowing more, and borrowing again safely. You will own the end-to-end origination funnel and work with lending partners and internal teams to codify credit learning into the platform for automated, scalable decisions.

    What you need

    Requirements

    • 3–6 years in credit, SME or commercial lending, digital lending or credit analytics, with a clear record of growing a loan book rather than only managing or monitoring one — evidenced by volumes disbursed, borrowers acquired, book grown or conversion improved.
    • Experience working across institutional counterparties — banks, DCPs, microfinance institutions, fintech partners or funders — and comfort holding a commercial relationship with a lender rather than simply reporting to one.
    • Ability to assess an MSME, size a limit sensibly and defend a decision to a partner credit committee, together with experience translating credit policy into the rules, criteria and limit logic that a decision engine or loan origination platform executes.
    • Comfort interrogating dashboards and working with scorecard output, preferably with the ability to write your own SQL queries or build your own analysis in Excel.
    • Deep familiarity with the Kenyan MSME and merchant ecosystem and how DCPs and banks in this market think about credit.
    • Experience in a digital lender, fintech or a bank's MSME / cash-flow lending unit, and exposure to alternative-data underwriting (highly desirable).
