IBOR Discontinuation Transition Project – Project Finance – Multiple Positions
Venn Group are recruiting multiple contract positions at a range levels for a global bank aiming to deliver their IBOR-related book of work, relating to interest rates, Risk Free Rates (RFRs), and their replacement ahead of the imminent policy changes at the end of this year.
The bank are expanding this project area at multiple levels, including AVP, VP, and Director. We therefore welcome applicants from a range of seniorities, providing that they have the requisite skills mentioned.
These positions will be reporting in to the Structured Finance and Project Finance Department and this project will be viewed through the lens of the portfolio of Project/Corporate Loan assets and associated derivative exposures managed by the existing teams.
The International Structured Finance Department has a total of 360-370 projects that are in scope and require change.
It is crucial that candidates are familiar with and can evidence knowledge of Interest Rate Swaps, Project Finance models, and Derivatives. These roles require frequent and direct liaison with Front Office, Project Finance, and other departments and stakeholders. In order to facilitate a smooth and efficient delivery across departments and to meet deadlines, candidates should be confident in their ability to collaborate as required.
It is essential that all applicants come from a banking background and demonstrate direct experience delivering LIBOR/IBOR Discontinuation projects, specifically accounting for how this process will influence the related Finance Documents. Candidates must understand the process of booking conventional Loans, as well as the associated Swaps/Derivatives.
IBOR delivery experience is highly desirable, however the bank also welcomes applicants with demonstrable remediation project experience.
Candidates must display the ability to manage and delegate workloads between themselves, Front Office, and Project teams, offering support and leadership to others on a structured and ad hoc basis. All roles will involve regular communication between Operations, Audit, Treasury, Credit, Loan, and Finance teams; therefore additional product knowledge would greatly complement any regulatory understanding of IBOR when collaborating with these teams.
Both external and internal communication is required throughout, substantiating the need for individuals with excellent communication skills. Knowledge of how to communicate effectively with stakeholders at all levels and across multiple geographical regions will also be needed, as will the ability to derive and present findings at regular intervals.
