• Work with partner teams to deploy client-level actions at appropriate points in the lifecycle (e.g., limit reviews, exposure reductions, outreach triggers).

Model & Analytical Tool Application

• Use credit scores, financial signals, and risk models appropriately to support account management decisions.
• Partner with model users and analysts to interpret model outputs and ensure strategies are correctly calibrated.

• Contribute ideas for new segmentation schemes, risk signals, or decision enhancements.

• Ensure account management strategies comply with credit policy, regulatory expectations, and model governance standards.
• Support ongoing validation, monitoring, and documentation to maintain strong strategy governance.
