Corporate Treasury, Resource Deployment & Strategy, Analyst/Associate, Singapore

FINANCE | Corporate Treasury

We're a team of specialists charged with managing the firm’s funding, liquidity, capital and relationships with creditors and regulators. Corporate Treasury manages the firm’s financial resources and minimizes interest expense through liability planning, asset liability management, and liquidity portfolio yield enhancement. The division is ideal for collaborative individuals who have strong quantitative analysis skills and risk management capabilities since Treasury actively manages the firm’s financial resources which are constantly changing due to business activity, markets, risk appetite, regulations, and other factors.

Who we look for:

Professionals in Corporate Treasury have an analytical mind set, exhibit intellectual curiosity and are from diverse academic backgrounds. We’re looking for candidates who will thrive in a dynamic environment where attention-to-detail, multitasking and time management skills are essential.

The division is ideal for collaborative individuals with strong quantitative skills, intellectual curiosity, and a commercial yet risk-conscious mindset. Working in the Corporate Treasury division, you will have exposure to all aspects of the firm, including new business activities and critical strategic programs. Strong communication and interpersonal skills are necessary to work successfully with internal and external stakeholders including leadership of the firm’s business lines, its creditors, regulators, and external counterparties.

About the Role:

Within Corporate Treasury, Resource Deployment and Strategy (“RDS”) is a unique opportunity for individuals at all levels to manage the firm’s balance sheet from both an asset and liability perspective and directly contribute to executing the firm’s strategy. Working closely with the Global Treasurer and other members of senior management, RDS is responsible for the design and execution of the firm’s central funding plan as well as the primary point of contact for all business lines through Treasury’s global “business coverage” model. The team partners with senior divisional resource managers to efficiently deploy the firm’s balance sheet in support of the firm’s strategic objectives. The team seeks to optimize the firm’s funding mix to minimize cost in a risk-conscious manner and is a key participant in decision making regarding the allocation of firm liquidity.

RDS’ approach to asset-liability management is both holistic and practical; individuals who excel in this role are equally adept at detailed trade-level recommendations and strategic thinking and are expected to develop deep knowledge of the funding products raised within Treasury, as well as the underlying business and client activity supported by that funding.
