• Partner with Risk, Operations, Technology, and external vendors to deliver and optimize strategies.
• Deliver clear, executive-level insights and recommendations grounded in data.
• Ensure strategies align with regulatory requirements and risk governance standards.

• Strong end-to-end collections expertise, including recoveries.
