Synchrony is a financial company like no other, and life in our Credit and Risk Management teams is just as fresh and unique. We have an open, collaborative, innovative culture—similar to a startup, but with the stability of a Fortune 200. That size and structure is balanced with the freedom for our employees to make a significant impact on our business and our clients.
Our Credit team is the gatekeeper to Synchrony, foundational to our business and key to our entire industry. We perform the mission critical work of deciding who is accepted for loans, how much credit we should extend to them and for how long. And on our Credit team, we’re not just managing risk and credit, we’re partnering closely with our clients to develop their business.
Risk Management assesses, reports on and helps to mitigate risks across all business activities. Our goal is to ensure that risks relevant to the business are identified, measured, monitored and controlled. Protecting the company by striking a sustainable balance between risk and growth is core to everything we do.
WE HAVE A ROBUST RISK MANAGEMENT TEAM, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING FUNCTIONS:
Corporate Risk
Risk Portfolio Management
Credit Risk
Risk Operations and Regulation Compliance
Analytics
