Debt capital markets analyst

Financial Institutions Debt Capital Markets (FI DCM) originator

We are looking for a Financial Institutions Debt Capital Markets (FI DCM) originator who will focus on Bank and Insurance clients in the Benelux and Nordics region. Within this job you are directly client facing and together with the other team members you'll give best advice on client's funding and capital needs and execute transactions for them. We are a rapidly growing team in terms of revenues, clients and transactions within ABN AMRO. As such, we are looking for a pro-active and keen to learn professional with a hands-on mentality who is willing to run the extra mile.

We understand clients, translate their ambitions into joint success and thus earn their trust. We want our clients to understand our products. Serving the client's interests is also a question of offering - and communicating - a transparent range of products. Banking is our business, the world is our challenge.

Our products include fixed income securities for Financial Institutions such as Tier 2 and AT1 bonds, senior unsecured (preferred and non-preferred), and covered bonds. In line with the ABN AMRO strategy, we increasingly focus on ESG bonds such as Green, Social and Sustainable bonds.

Within the broader DCM team, the FI DCM Origination is being supported by the following Specialist teams:
1. Sustainable Finance. Within the team we advise clients how to best attract Green, Social or Sustainable Financing against sustainable assets or activities.
2. Hybrid Capital, Subordinated debt and Liability Management services.
3. Secured Debt (RMBS, CMBS, warehouse facilities, ABS). Additionally, we offer financing advice to Real Estate and consumer finance asset portfolio acquiring parties.
4. Syndicate, the center of expertise when it comes to market-  and investor intelligence

Your job consists mainly of pitching for and the execution of primary bond issuances for our clients. Together with our Specialist teams, you take part in analyzing bank and insurance sector themes and balance sheets, you will pinpoint to possible funding or capitalization issues that are derived from that analysis, and subsequently you assist in preparing client pitches and executing products tailored to specific needs from our client base.

You will be operating in a heavily regulated sector in which applicable regulations are constantly evolving. Keeping abreast of the ever changing landscape is a steep but extremely interesting task. You will map all applicable Debt Capital Market dynamics and will advise clients on a joint basis with other ABN AMRO departments (e.g. Coverage, Syndicate, Sales, Research and Trading).

The FI DCM team consists of 11 people mixed between senior and junior team members. The team radiates energy and has a total dedication to clients and product expertise. Our team is predominantly based in Amsterdam but we also operate from our Frankfurt and London offices. We enjoy a great team spirit and help colleagues where needed and possible.
 

You are an undisputed team player and quick thinker with a trusted hands-on mentality. You can work in a fast paced environment and able to handle multiple tasks throughout the day. You are a pro-active individual who loves to take on a new initiative and is prepared for a very steep learning curve which will enable you to compete for strategic transactions issued by our core FI clients in the Benelux and Nordics region. When involved in the product side of our team, your product skill will enable client originators to excel in front of clients and in live deal situations.

Your profile:
- Affiliation with (debt) capital markets and fixed income
- Introductory work experience, preferably in Banking
- Strong communication and analytical skills
- Strong academic qualifications (quantitative background is a plus)
- Time management skills, being able to excel in a fast pace environment

As an enthusiastic and committed professional at ABN AMRO, you are continuously working on your own development. You use your knowledge, skills and behavior to put the client at the center of everything you do. Only in this way can we create sustainable growth and continuity for our clients and our bank.

We offer a great team environment, a very professional and competitive approach to our business and a very interesting and steep learning curve.
