Senior Business Developer - Corporate Banking (Luxembourg)

OUR CLIENT

We are supporting aleading international banking institution with a long-standing presence in Luxembourg, recognised for its financial strength, local decision-making autonomy and its ability to support corporates on complex, cross-border financial matters.

As part of the strategic expansion of its Corporate Banking activities, our client is creating several senior-level positions to accelerate growth in the Mid-Corporate and international client segments.

YOUR ROLE

This is a pure business development role — not a portfolio management position.

You will act as a deal originator and structurer, focusing on complex, high-value, and strategic opportunities. Once a transaction is closed, the day-to-day relationship will be transferred to a Relationship Manager.

You will work closely with internal teams (Relationship Managers, Corporate Finance, DCM, Lending, Cash Management, etc.) and position yourself as a true solution architect for corporate clients.

YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES

Business development & acquisition

• Originate and acquire new Mid-Corporate and international clients (turnover approx. €50m–€2bn).
• Build and maintain a strong pipeline of complex and strategic opportunities.
• Leverage your existing professional network (law firms, Big4, advisory firms, corporate service providers, etc.) to generate deal flow.

Structuring & solution design

• Develop comprehensive and innovative financial solutions: lending, cash management, treasury, structured finance, transactional services, etc.
• Collaborate closely with Corporate Finance and DCM teams on sophisticated transactions.
• Actively contribute to the development of new products and service offerings.

Strategic & transversal role

• Provide market intelligence: client needs, competitor positioning, pricing trends, regulatory developments.
• Support and train Relationship Managers in identifying cross-selling and growth opportunities.
• Position yourself as an internal and external ambassador of the Corporate Banking value proposition.
• Represent the bank at conferences, industry events and professional forums.

Governance & compliance

• Ensure full adherence to internal policies and regulatory requirements (KYC, AML, CRM documentation, etc.).
• Maintain high standards in terms of risk awareness and file quality.

Requirements

YOUR PROFILE:

Experience

Technical expertise

• Strong financial analysis skills (balance sheets, ratios, business models).
• Good understanding of Corporate Finance and DCM products.
• Familiarity with banking legal documentation (ideally LMA standards).
• Strong understanding of the Luxembourg regulatory and tax environment.

Network & mindset

• Active network of decision-makers, advisors and corporate leaders.
