Job Description

Job Title: Associate - APAC Banks & Diversified Financials - Institutional Coverage

Location: London

Hours: Full-Time

Working Pattern: Our work style is hybrid, which involves spending at least three days per week or 60% of our time, at one of our London office.

About this Opportunity:

Join our Institutional Coverage team and help build relationships with leading banks and diversified financial services clients across Asia Pacific (APAC). You’ll work across a varied portfolio in some of the world’s fastest-growing markets, supporting clients with solutions spanning financial markets, capital markets, trade, payments and risk management.

As an Associate, you’ll support the APAC team across its client portfolio while helping to identify new business opportunities and deepen existing relationships. Our clients include banks, payment service providers, market infrastructure businesses and non-bank financial institutions, giving you broad exposure to the financial services landscape across the region.

You’ll have the opportunity to take ownership of client relationships and countries as your experience develops, contribute to pitches for new business and coordinate broader business development initiatives. You’ll work closely with product, credit risk and client service colleagues to develop solutions that meet client needs and help deliver the wider capabilities of Lloyds Banking Group.

You’ll also coordinate annual portfolio renewals, ensure legal and other documentation aligns with credit sanctions and relevant Bank and regulatory policies, and look for ways to improve processes and create a more efficient, client-focused team.

Why Lloyds Banking Group?

We’re on an exciting journey to transform our Group and the way we’re shaping finance for good. We’re focusing on the future, investing in our technologies, workplaces, and colleagues to make our Group a great place for everyone. Including you!

What we’re looking for?

• 2+ years’ experience in Corporate & Institutional Banking, with an understanding of relevant products, financial analysis, and the wider economic and market environment.
• Knowledge of financial services, or global markets, transaction banking products.
• Experience building collaborative internal and external relationships, taking ownership and identifying opportunities to support business development and deliver client solutions.
• Strong risk awareness, with the ability to identify, assess and manage risk in a changing geopolitical and regulatory environment.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with experience presenting complex information clearly to a range of stakeholders.

And any experience of these would be great:

• Good knowledge of Asia Pacific markets or experience working with Asia Pacific institutions.
• Ability to speak a language used across the Asia Pacific region.

We know that great talent comes from many backgrounds. Whilst this advert may reference specific experience, we recognise that skills are developed in different ways, so if you have relevant, transferable experience, we encourage you to apply.

About Working For Us:

Our ambition is to be the leading UK business for diversity, equity and inclusion supporting our customers, colleagues and communities, and we’re committed to creating an environment in which everyone can thrive, learn and develop.

We were one of the first major organisations to set goals on diversity in senior roles, create a menopause health package, and a dedicated Working with Cancer Initiative.

We offer reasonable workplace adjustments for colleagues with disabilities, including flexibility in office attendance, location and working patterns. And, as a Disability Confident Leader, we guarantee interviews for a fair and proportionate number of applicants who meet the minimum criteria for the role with a disability, long-term health or neurodivergent condition through the Disability Confident Scheme.

We provide reasonable adjustments throughout the recruitment process to reduce or remove barriers. Just let us know what you need.

We also offer a wide-ranging benefits package, which includes:

• A generous pension contribution of up to 15%

• An annual performance-related bonus

• Share schemes including free shares

• Benefits you can adapt to your lifestyle, such as discounted shopping
