Director Research & Consulting (Financial Services)

at  TransUnion

WHAT YOU’LL BRING:

The Director, Financial Services Research and Consulting is a senior leader and a key contributor to the perception of TransUnion in the marketplace as an authority on lending and risk dynamics. We are looking for a seasoned subject matter expert with mastery of a wide range of consumer lending industry practices, products and functions through the entire customer life cycle. This role drives thought leadership in two ways: first, the incumbent manages sophisticated research initiatives aimed at understanding why consumers behave the way they do with credit, what external forces influence that behavior and what lenders need to know to manage the risks and opportunities associated with that behavior. Second, this role provides critical assistance to the Sales team in presenting advanced concepts to customers, and in exploring customer challenges across products/business units/functions, all while helping elevate the level and relevance of discussions that our Sales team has with customers. This role serves as a consumer lending product, industry and research expert for the Sales force and for our customers. In short, you motivate our customers to see us as a trusted partner instead of a vendor. You will accomplish this through a variety of direct and indirect customer engagement vehicles. This role is located and based in Johannesburg, South Africa.
