VP, Credit Process Execution Management

The VP, Credit Process Execution Management strengthens execution discipline, clarity, and continuity across Credit Governance initiatives. This role ensures that audit, regulatory, policy, and process-related efforts move forward with deliberate prioritization especially where ownership spans multiple teams, timelines shift, or initiatives risk stalling without clear decisions.

Operating as a senior execution partner, this role translates governance intent into structured, actionable pathways. It acts as a stabilizing force across initiatives by organizing ambiguity, surfacing decision points, identifying risks early, and preventing silent deprioritization. The role complementsbut does not duplicateDMI, IT, Reporting, PMO, or credit governance decision-making functions.

As the Credit Governance function scales, this role may expand in scope to provide additional execution capacity and leadership visibility.

This is a high-impact opportunity to shape how the bank executes governance-related work at scale. The successful candidate will influence cross-bank decision making, bring structure around complex initiatives, and strengthen execution predictability in a function that is growing in both scope and strategic importance.

Responsibilities

Execution Continuity & Governance Tracking

  • Maintain a centralized, accurate view of Credit Governance initiatives (policy updates, audit / regulatory remediation, system enhancements, self-identified issues, and process improvements).
  • Ensure clear scope, ownership, milestones, dependencies, and paths to closure or decision.
  • Monitor for execution drift, unclear handoffs, stalled workstreams, or deprioritized tasks; proactively re-establish momentum or escalate when needed.
  • Surface risks, trade-offs, and decision needs to appropriate owners and leadership in a timely, structured manner.
  • Support transparent prioritization across BAU, remediation, and forward-looking initiatives to protect governance integrity and resource allocation.

Business Analysis & Cross-Functional Execution

  • Translate governance objectives into structured problem statements, execution frameworks, and high-level requirements.
  • Identify ambiguities, gaps, dependencies, and rework risks early in the initiative lifecycle.
  • Document current-state and future-state processes, scope assumptions, decision logs, and acceptance criteria.
  • Coordinate across DMI, IT, Reporting, Operations, Senior Credit Supervision, and other key stakeholders to align ownership, scope, expectations, and sequencing
  • Validate outputs against governance intent; escalate misalignment, capacity constraints, or dependency risks.
  • Facilitate targeted working sessions to resolve scope, ownership, dependency, or decision gaps when initiatives risk stalling
  • Ensure accountable owners remain responsible for execution and delivery; escalate when ownership or capacity constraints prevent progress
  • May perform other duties as assigned
  • Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical experience is required.
  • 812 years of experience in banking, credit risk, governance, audit, compliance, operations, or related functions.
  • 46 years of hands-on Business Analyst or execution-focused experience, including requirements structuring and issue remediation.
  • Working understanding of credit or credit risk concepts sufficient to operate independently and exercise sound judgment.
  • SQL familiarity required (ability to read queries, make light modifications, validate data for analysis / testing).
  • Advanced Excel proficiency; strong PowerPoint and written communication skills.
  • Demonstrated ability to operate independently, structure ambiguity, and manage multiple cross-functional initiatives.
  • Proven ability to partner effectively with IT, Reporting, Operations, and Credit stakeholders.
  • Experience in audit, regulatory, or control-driven environments preferred.
  • Highly organized, proactive, and adaptable, with strong judgment and escalation instincts.
  • Effective time?management and prioritization skills in a fast?paced, evolving environment.
  • Able to remain calm under pressure, adjust methods to changing circumstances, and maintain a high level of integrity and discretion.
  • Applicants must have legal authorization to work in the United States. We do not offer visa sponsorship at this time.

    Compensation

    The base pay range for this position is USD $100,000.00 / Yr. - USD $170,000.00 / Yr. Exact offers will be determined based on job-related knowledge, skills, experience, and location.
