Job Description

Working in the Corporate and Commercial Banking Risk Team, you will work in partnership with Relationship Managers in managing a portfolio of both complex and standard Large Corporate Relationships undertaking due diligence, preparing annual renewal and other interim credit applications and making approval recommendations to the appropriate level. You will also prepare quality credit proposals focusing on providing robust analysis and an independent, balanced view of credit risks and will be personally responsible for managing credit risk associated with a portfolio of Large Corporates.

You will provide constructive support to the business by identifying effective solutions with the objective of structuring transactions to meet credit policy and delivery of financial targets. You will also actively support the business from a credit-risk perspective by visiting prospective and existing customers, helping to structure proposals, ensuring risk information is shared, and providing training and guidance on risk matters.

With demonstrable exposure analysing corporate banking credits and managing a commercial/corporate portfolio, you will ideally have banking, treasury or accountancy qualifications and be familiar with the management of large corporate deals and small and medium size clients. Your stakeholder management skills will be key, as you will manage a variety of relationships with our compliance, legal and middle office areas.

To succeed in this role, you will not only possess a solid understanding of financial forecasting methodology and credit rating interpretation, but you will also have extensive exposure to the UK corporate banking sector and a sound understanding of bilateral / club and syndicated type facilities as well as a solid understanding of the typical corporate banking suite of products, including an understanding of derivatives (interest rate & FX swaps) and other specialist products offered by the Bank.
