What You’ll Do

  • Own complex distressed cases from diagnosis through resolution; develop and execute restructuring, refinancing, debt-sale, enforcement or insolvency strategies
  • Assess business viability, cash flows, liquidity, enterprise and collateral value, debt capacity and capital structures; challenge borrower plans, forecasts and adviser assumptions. Compare base, upside and downside recovery scenarios, weighing timing, execution risk and additional funding or concessions to distinguish value-preserving support from delayed recognition of deterioration
  • Evaluate covenants, guarantees, security, cash-management and intercreditor arrangements with legal counsel to establish the Bank’s rights, leverage and alternatives
  • Lead negotiations with borrowers, sponsors, lenders and advisers; resist unsupported demands and artificial deadlines, balancing constructive compromise with credible contractual alternatives

How You’ll Lead

  • Provide senior case direction and respectful, robust challenge to internal and external stakeholders, including senior decisionmakers
  • Coach Vice Presidents and junior colleagues in credit analysis, commercial judgment and negotiation; review the underlying case thesis, not just the presentation

  • Demonstrated execution of restructuring and recovery strategies and negotiation with sophisticated borrowers, sponsors, lenders and legal advisers
  • Strong financial modeling, cash-flow forecasting, valuation and recovery analysis; ability to assess contractual rights and restructuring alternatives commercially and from a risk perspective
  • Experience presenting complex or contentious recommendations to senior decision makers and credit committees. Success means quickly diagnosing deterioration, establishing realistic business value and recovery, identifying the Bank’s leverage and executing a defensible resolution strategy
  • Proven ability to leverage AI tools to enhance productivity, optimize workflows to solve business problems, while applying critical judgment to ensure responsible and ethical use of data and AI outputs

Skills That Will Help You Excel

  • Independent judgment, commercial instincts and ownership of difficult decisions
  • Confidence to challenge consensus while remaining open to contrary evidence
  • Clear written and verbal communication, disciplined prioritization and the ability to build effective working relationships without compromising the Bank’s interests
