About
Results-driven Credit Analyst with over one year of hands-on experience assessing and evaluating credit applications, identifying and mitigating risk, and making informed credit decisions within commercial and SME lending environments.
At Wetility
Energy, I conduct end-to-end credit underwriting — analysing bank statements, management accounts, income statements, and balance sheets, performing qualitative and quantitative assessments, and preparing detailed credit recommendations for management review. My internship at TotalEnergies provided strong exposure to portfolio management (R3B+ book value), credit risk governance, and stakeholder engagement. I am proficient in advanced Excel, experienced with CRM and ERP platforms (Microsoft Dynamics 365, SAP), and highly attentive to early warning indicators and emerging risk trends.
I bring strong analytical thinking, sound judgment, and the ability to work both independently and collaboratively across departments.
