About the Role
This senior opportunity within Corporate & Institutional Banking (CIB) involves owning HSBC’s global problem exposure management and deterioration oversight framework. You will design and develop the wholesale Watch, Worry and Monitor (WWM) framework, setting standards and management information across regions and businesses. The role translates insights into decisive portfolio actions to support sustainable growth, risk-adjusted returns, capital efficiency, and regulatory resilience. You will also shape client risk-profiling and the Early Warning Indicator (EWI) platform for timely risk identification. Success means earlier escalation, clearer decisions, and forward-looking insight that improves portfolio transparency and capital deployment.
Responsibilities

- Translate macroeconomic, sector, portfolio and single-name insights into portfolio recommendations and strategic interventions
- Balance growth, risk, return, concentration, capital consumption and financial-resource considerations in portfolio steering
- Partner with Distribution, Coverage and Risk to execute optimisation opportunities including distribution, restructuring, de-risking and other risk-mitigation actions
- Establish global minimum standards for WWM identification, referral, risk profiling, review frequency, escalation, action ownership and exit criteria
- Design decision-oriented management information on WWM populations and movements, exposure and risk trends, deterioration drivers and action outcomes
- Chair global senior governance forums including the Global WWM Oversight Meeting and provide concise forward-looking papers for decision-making
- Shape client risk-profiling and transform EWI tools and processes with Transformation, Data, Technology and CCM Quants teams
- Champion advanced analytics and appropriate AI-enabled capabilities to improve predictive risk insight and management decision-making
- Strengthen controls and operating effectiveness for credit-monitoring-related processes aligned to evolving regulatory expectations
Requirements
- Extensive experience in wholesale banking, credit risk, portfolio management, coverage, problem credit management or a related discipline
- Ownership of global or cross-business frameworks, transformation initiatives or complex strategic programmes
- Hands-on experience designing or operating WWM, EWI, client risk-profiling or credit-monitoring frameworks
- Strong commercial and risk judgement across growth, risk, return, concentration and capital efficiency trade-offs
- Ability to convert complex portfolio and risk information into practical recommendations and decision-ready management information
- Effective operation in senior governance, oversight and escalation forums with strong documentation and control discipline
- Ability to partner across Business, CCM, SCU, Credit, Coverage, Finance, COO and Transformation, Data and Technology stakeholders to align decisions and actions
- Experience managing multidisciplinary and geographically distributed teams and building capability in monitoring, analytics, governance and transformation
