• Own acquisition credit strategy end-to-end: who we approve, how much credit they get, how it is priced, how the product is structured, and the expected profitability of those decisions. • Be a thought partner: collaborate closely with Product, Commercial, Growth, Engineering, and Finance to keep credit strategy aligned with business milestones — and go beyond credit: elevate good ideas, push back with data and align on facts, and take on hard operational problems across the business. • Build and run the monitoring and learning loop: dashboards, controls, and automated triggers that show how policies and the portfolio are performing; experiments and impact assessments; and timely corrective action when performance deviates from plan. • Lead fraud and data verification strategy and ops team:the rules and detection processes that stop fraud at acquisition, and the day-to-day running of the team — SOPs, incentives, performance management, and quality. • Spend regular time in the field: meet farmers, agrodealers, field officers, and verification agents to understand their challenges first-hand, and use those insights to improve Apollo’s credit offering. • Coach and develop the team: build accountability, resilience, and future leaders within the function. • Be AI-first in your workflows: use AI wherever it cuts turnaround times, automates repetitive work, or improves quality. • 4–7 years of experience in credit, risk, strategy, analytics, or product roles, ideally within financial services or consulting — including exposure to credit or lending risk: you understand how lending economics work (risk, pricing, portfolio performance). • Structured, first-principles problem solving, with a track record of turning ambiguous business problems into shipped policies. • Exceptional analytical ability, including SQL and dashboard tools — able to read through data, extract the hidden insights, and visualize them in ways most people cannot. • Experience collaborating deeply across functions, influencing without formal authority, and leading and developing teams in fast-paced, high-growth environments. • Strong communication skills: shares thinking with clarity in writing and in person, aligns people on facts, and constructively challenges the status quo. • Real appetite for time in the field with the farmers we serve — based in Nairobi or willing to travel extensively to Apollo’s markets. • Hands-on experience with AI tools and AI-assisted workflows. • A degree in a quantitative or analytical discipline such as engineering, statistics, mathematics, or economics.
