You will join a specialised Deep Sea Shipping sector team within the CRE & Shipping structure of Financing Solutions. The team manages a portfolio of shipping clients and works closely with colleagues in the Netherlands, Greece and Norway.

As a Financial Solutions Specialist, you are a partner and adviser to clients and colleagues. You identify opportunities where your product or service adds value, work across the full life cycle of your scope, and help drive sustainable improvements and/or innovations in products and services.

Your job

As a Financial Solutions Specialist (Hay 11/12), you serve clients on a dedicated basis with significant client ownership. You are responsible for the full credit cycle of a moderately complex portfolio and spend most of your time on portfolio ownership and execution, while also supporting more senior colleagues on structuring, monitoring and loan execution when needed. 
You combine commercial focus, analytical judgement and risk awareness to deliver on the key results for this level: client outcomes, first time right credit delivery, time to yes/time to cash, data quality across the credit chain, organised execution, and KYC/client integrity. 
In practice, you will:
•    Manage a dedicated client portfolio in the Shipping sector, including developing commercial strategy for your portfolio and monitoring client and account plans.
•    Provide strategic credit advice based on strong knowledge of (complex) financial products, credit risks and sector developments, translating client needs into bankable structures. 
•    Conduct strategic client conversations and respond to product related questions to identify and capture commercial opportunities.
•    Own the end to end credit process for new and existing clients: structuring, negotiating and executing transactions, and maintaining tailor made credit solutions.
•    Perform continuous credit risk monitoring (Basel and full reviews, covenants) and act on triggers/signals; drive follow up actions and remediation.
•    Coordinate the credit chain with stakeholders such as Risk, Markets, Transaction Banking, Client Support, Lending Support, Contracting and Legal.
•    Ensure high quality documentation and compliance (KYC/AML, laws and regulations) and contribute to process optimisation and continuous improvement.
•    Contribute to Financing Solutions priorities: operational excellence and innovation, digitalisation/automation, and proactive risk management approaches (e.g., moving toward more risk based monitoring).
