  • Prepare a variety of material suitable for publication on S&P Global Ratings credit portal and other media (such as rating reports, press releases, and detailed commentaries) sufficient to disseminate and explain our ratings on a timely basis.
  • Participate in periodic thematic portfolio reviews in conjunction with the rest of the team.
  • Participate actively in publishing and investor outreach activities.
  • Share specific analytical expertise, any useful know how, and ideas to support continuous improvement.
