Senior Lead - Enterprise Portfolio Credit Risk

At Freddie Mac, our mission of Making Home Possible is what motivates us, and it’s at the core of everything we do. Since our charter in 1970, we have made home possible for more than 90 million families across the country. Join an organization where your work contributes to a greater purpose.

Position Overview:

This role sits at the center of Freddie Mac’s enterprise financial risk oversight, shaping how the company anticipates, measures, and manages Single-Family credit risk across the economic cycle. You will translate macroeconomic and market signals into actionable credit loss forecasts and stress-test insights, informing risk appetite, and capital resilience under both internal scenarios and regulatory frameworks (e.g., DFAST).

As an independent risk leader, you’ll provide effective challenge to models and deterministic quantitative methods, strengthen governance and use standards, and continuously enhance forecasting and portfolio risk analytics. You’ll partner closely across Enterprise Risk, Model Risk and the business to monitor key risk indicators, identify emerging risks early, assess new initiatives and policy changes, and evaluate portfolio strategies such as loss mitigation and liquidation approaches. The position offers high visibility, meaningful influence on enterprise outcomes, and the opportunity to innovate in risk analytics, model governance, and data-driven oversight while developing and leading talent in a fast-paced, mission-critical environment.

Our Impact:

The Financial Risk team within the Enterprise Risk Division is responsible for oversight and effective challenge of the company’s most important risks, including credit, market, and liquidity risks. Together, we:

• Establish governance, policies, and standards that define how the company manages financial risks to support safety and soundness

• Monitor and report on the risk and control profile, financial risk appetite, and performance of risk indicators and metrics against thresholds and limits
