• Deep market knowledge of the Australian corporate banking space and network.
• Strong knowledge of product solutions, including trade and receivables finance and transactional banking.
• The ability to manage clients effectively on a global basis, with demonstrated experience managing complex clients internationally, both privately held and listed.
• A genuine customer service focus to build strong and lasting relationships with multiple internal and external stakeholders, with the desire and demonstrated ability to consistently meet and exceed customer expectations.
• In-depth analytical skills with a strong commercial orientation and a disciplined approach to maintaining credit quality.
• Strong non-financial risk awareness, including an ability to proactively identify, assess and mitigate risks, whilst always adhering to mandatory policies and procedures.
• Individuals with a business development/client acquisition focus and/or those with focussed experience in relationship coverage of sponsor-backed and leveraged companies would be particularly relevant.
