The Risk function within Atlas is responsible for identifying and managing risks across the deal lifecycle, including reputational, regulatory, governance, and credit risk considerations. The team partners closely with deal teams, legal, compliance, and senior risk leadership to ensure that transactions are thoroughly vetted and approved through appropriate governance frameworks.

The Role:

This is a full-time role with primary ownership of the reputational risk review process for the Atlas platform, with scope expected to expand over time into broader ABF. The individual will conduct thorough reputational due diligence on transactions and counterparties, and produce conclusive, well-reasoned recommendations to senior management and investment/risk committees based on a fulsome risks and mitigants analysis. The role requires a strong working knowledge of compliance frameworks (KYC, sanctions, conflicts) and sufficient understanding of financing structures to apply findings to specific transaction contexts. This is not a legal role, though candidates from a legal or compliance background are equally welcome. Reporting line is directly into AASP Risk with an additional reporting line into Atlas Legal; line manager will depend on level of hire and experience.

Primary Responsibilities:

Conduct legal, regulatory, and financial due diligence to assess reputational risk across a variety of transactions and business relationships, with a primary focus on asset-backed finance. Analyze reputational risks including corruption, fraud, litigation, regulatory issues, sanctions, governance concerns, conflicts of interest, and high-risk lines of business. Identify, assess, and synthesize risk-relevant information from multiple open-source and proprietary sources; instruct and liaise with investigative consultants and evaluate their findings. Apply a global perspective to reputational risk, with sensitivity to local market practices, regulatory environments, and cultural considerations that may impact risk outcomes. Prepare clear, concise, and well-structured risk and mitigants memoranda for senior management, risk approval committees, new product approval committees, and other transaction or conflict committees. Contribute to committee discussions by challenging assumptions, asking probing questions, and ensuring risks are fully vetted and understood before decisions are made. Review and critically assess third-party due diligence reports; drive the due diligence process to address identified issues, coordinating closely with external counsel, in-house legal, and compliance. Engage with internal stakeholders across deal teams, legal, compliance, and risk; escalate issues that merit further diligence or committee review. Develop relevant industry and sub-sector expertise within asset-backed finance; proactively identify and anticipate emerging reputational risks. Qualifications & Experience 8+ years of experience in legal, regulatory, compliance, or financial services. Background at a top law firm (mid

• to senior-level associate) and/or in-house at a bank or financial institution, with meaningful exposure to complex financial transactions; compliance candidates with a KYC/conflicts focus will also be considered.

Demonstrated experience supporting or participating in risk approval committees, conflict committees, new product approval committees, or similar governance forums. Strong familiarity with financial services regulation and a range of debt finance and asset-backed finance transaction structures. Proven ability to identify and analyze governance, sanctions, KYC, litigation, and regulatory flags in the context of specific transaction structures. Experience challenging business decisions and risk perspectives in a constructive, credible manner; ability to ask tough, incisive questions and drill into key issues. Expertise in, or meaningful exposure to fraud-related risks and investigations is highly desirable. Proven ability to draft high-quality risk memoranda outlining risks, mitigants, and recommendations in a clear and structured way. Strong analytical, research, and investigative skills, including experience leveraging open-source and proprietary information sources.
