About The Team
The Tokyo Corporates' team - comprising a Senior Director and the successful candidate – leads the ratings analysis for Japanese non-financial Corporates across many sectors. The portfolio, which is steadily growing, comprises both public and private ratings, typically for blue chip issuers.
How You'll Make An Impact
- Assume primary analytical responsibility for a portfolio of issuers across diverse industries and assess the key quantitative and qualitative factors influencing their credit quality. Act as backup analyst on a separate portfolio of Japanese issuers.
- Internal Communication: Prepare and present analysis of companies to internal credit rating committees, demonstrating an ability to understand and clearly communicate expectations of future performance and how this might affect a rating, as assessed under Fitch's Corporate Rating Criteria.
- External Communication: Lead meetings with issuers' management teams and be able to communicate rating rationales and Fitch's views to external audiences (institutional investors, bankers and media) in meetings, conference calls, press releases and written research reports
- Support the Senior Director and the Business and Relationship Management team in outreach work by researching the performance of target companies, preparation of outreach material and participating in external meetings where requested.
- Understand and ensure Japanese regulatory requirements (FRJ) are met.
You May Be a Good Fit If
- The candidate should ideally possess a degree in Finance, Business or Accounting or a Quantitative discipline
- At least 7 years' relevant experience in credit or equity research, corporate banking credit departments, investment banking and/or other relevant corporate finance roles.
- Fluent written and spoken Japanese and English (both to a business standard), particularly in the context of report writing and oral presentation of analytical concepts
- Solid analytical and financial modelling skills.
What Would Make You Stand Out
- Must be a strong team player and possess excellent inter-personal skills, with an ability to integrate quickly into an established team and to deal with colleagues and external parties across the Asia-Pacific region.
- Self-starter. The candidate will be expected to show initiative as well as managing and prioritising his/her time and work both independently and as part of a small team.
- CFA charter-holders or candidates who are working towards completing the CFA exams will be considered favorably
Why Choose Fitch
- Hybrid Work Environment: 3 days a week in office required
- A Culture of Learning & Mobility: Dedicated trainings, leadership development and mentorship programs designed to ensure that your time at Fitch will be a continuous learning opportunity
