Description

ING Financial Markets (FM) is the Bank's gateway to the professional markets around the world. Our primary function is to fulfill the needs of ING Wholesale Banking's (WB) clients with global markets products and services. FM aims to be a significant market player with presence in all the major international markets and selected emerging economies.

About Corporate Origination Sales

Our desk is the first point of contact for all FM related products towards ING's corporate client base as well as internal stakeholders. Our main goal is to help our clients navigate global markets. We position them for stabilized growth by hedging their financial market risks like interest rates, foreign exchange, commodities and equity derivatives. On top, we assist corporates to manage their excess cash position by means of deposits, commercial paper and repos.

To originate and execute transactions for our clients, we continuously collaborate with various Wholesale Banking departments; Sector Coverage, Lending, Transaction Services and Capital Markets & Advisory. Within FM we work closely together with Client Solutions Group/Structuring and Execution Sales to process highly bespoke, and event driven hedging transactions and flow products. We also interact frequently with Legal, Risk and Ops.

Feel free to apply at our great desk that is supporting the WB Franchise to become the best European wholesale bank. We aim for unrivalled client delivery in the Dutch market and the #1 reason to join us is simple: you belong to the best, and we will make you better.

Your role

We typically look for people with strong commercial acumen combined with an analytical skillset. You have a relentless drive to keep getting better each day and can process requests with diligence and speed.

This job will position you in the fast-paced environment of financial markets and derivatives, but you will also gain a solid understanding of key WB banking products as our activities are usually intertwined with all WB's divisions.

To match our activities with the WB Sector approach and to increase cross-buy we introduced a sector-focused sales operating model.

Therefore, alongside with senior sales, your primary responsibility is to further grow the business with Dutch clients in the sectors Technology, Media, Telecom and Healthcare (TMT&HC) and Corporate Sector Coverage (CSC), whereby you will actively participate in the full process of more complex, non-flow and loan linked strategic transactions.
