As a Senior Relationship Manager, you'll be part of a remote sales team working with First Nations, Métis Settlements, community members and external partners to deliver financing and advisory services for complex portfolios. You'll manage customer accounts, build new customer relationships, and deliver a seamless customer experience.

We're looking for someone who thrives in both collaborative and autonomous environments and builds on others' ideas, turning customer interactions into insights and opportunities - someone who's a strong communicator and active listener and can engage Indigenous Nations, Economic Development Corporations, and industry stakeholders.

• Support relationship management by identifying customer needs and contributing to tailored solutions
• Act as a trusted point of contact for customers and communities, identifying opportunities to support community and business goals through respectful, relationship-focused financing conversations
• Deliver a strong customer experience by managing requests efficiently and adding value in each interaction
• Travel across the assigned territory to meet with customers, communities and partners in person, including in community and on-reserve settings as required
• Review and analyze business proposals, loan applications, and customer financial information
• Advise customers on borrowing solutions, including structure, conditions and security requirements
• Monitor customer accounts through regular reviews, compliance monitoring, and performance tracking
• Develop referral networks and relationships with industry leaders, financial institutions, and government agencies

• A bachelor's degree
• Minimum five years of related commercial lending experience, (or an equivalent combination of education and experience)

• Demonstrated understanding of corporate structures and financial analysis
• Strong sales, negotiation, decision-making and relationship management skills
• Ability to manage challenging negotiations and build long-term business relationships
