About Imperial Capital

Imperial Capital Group (Los Angeles, New York, London, Milan) provides institutional sales & trading, investment banking, capital markets, and restructuring advisory, specializing in complex and illiquid credit across the capital structure.

Why we\'re hiring

We\'re expanding senior sell-side coverage across priority regions to originate and execute in High Yield, stressed / distressed, EM and special situations — on a riskless-principal basis. This is not IG / rates and not a sales-trader role.

• AT1 / CoCos, corporate hybrids;
• Senior & subordinated financials;
• Covered, core & peripheral SSA;
• Illiquids and selected ABS. Illustrative cases include legacy CS AT1 and select EM sovereign / corporate workouts (e.g., Venezuela / PDVSA, Argentina) where permitted by applicable laws, sanctions, and internal policies.

We\'re looking for seasoned producers who turn differentiated ideas into revenue and deepen Tier-1 buy-side relationships—executing strictly within our regulatory permissions and compliance standards.

• Italy — Senior Sales covering Italy and Italian-speaking clients.

Location: Milan, Italy

What you\'ll do

• Own senior client coverage in your region; maintain and expand a network of real-money, hedge funds, private banks, and family offices.
• Originate & close across HY, stressed / distressed bonds & loans, post-reorg situations; deploy hybrids & sub-Fins when accretive. Not IG / rates.
• Run your book: craft ideas with Trading & Research, set pricing, coordinate execution, and ensure clean, timely settlement—riskless-principal (this is not a sales-trader role).
• Collaborate globally with colleagues in the UK / US to maximize cross-border idea flow and capital velocity.

The platform you\'ll leverage

• Agency-based, client-first model designed to avoid conflicts; riskless-principal execution with seasoned legal & settlements support.
• Deep distribution to global institutional investors; block-trade capability in liquid & illiquid securities.
• Differentiated desk analysis focused on distressed & special situations; seamless USEU execution from London & Milan.

What you bring

• Sell-side prerequisite (broker-dealer / investment firm). Buy-side profiles are not in scope.
• 5+ years as senior institutional credit sales (exclude internship / analyst / associate years).
• Portable, monetizable relationships in HY / stressed / distressed / special situations.
• Languages: English at professional level (C1+). Plus one of Italian, French, or German aligned to your coverage. Italian is a plus for all roles (Milan base). Nordics / CEE languages are an advantage.
• Results-driven, ethical, collaborative; strong compliance mindset.

Compensation & benefits

• Pension plan, professional & life insurance, private healthcare.
