Senior Associate - Loan Distribution Group - ING Wholesale Bank

ING, Australia’s most recommended bank is seeking a seasoned Senior Associate to join our Loan Distribution Group within the Wholesale Bank.

Whilst the role is based in Sydney, you will be part of APAC team that is an integral part of ING’s Capital Markets and Advisory division, whose key objective is supporting our Sector and Lending teams in securing financing mandates (typically syndicated loans) where the financing requirement is greater than ING’s capacity or willingness to provide on a stand-alone basis.

The role is responsible for supporting the origination, distribution and execution of new loan opportunities as well as playing an important role in the development and execution of the growth strategy for the wider ING Wholesale Bank.

Whilst many transactions will be Australia focused you will have the opportunity to work on transactions across the APAC region working closely with sector and lending colleagues in other countries.
