About the Opportunity
The Negotiator drafts, reviews, and negotiates trading and other relevant documentation, performs due diligence, and provides advice in respect of that documentation.
The Negotiator will be assigned negotiations that meet their skill set, have readily available templates and fallbacks, and will actively work with their manager/s to make sure they are complying with the bank’s policies and procedures for those negotiations.
In the course of the negotiations, the Negotiator will be the primary contact with the counterparty and the relevant Legal Counsel and will liaise with the business and support functions (e.g. Risk, Finance) and other infrastructure functions to make sure that the documentation executed with the counterparty meets the requirements of internal policies, procedures, and regulations, as applicable, and that approvals are sought for any deviations from the bank’s policies and procedures.
The Negotiator will perform recordkeeping responsibilities related to such negotiations and documentation or confirm the accuracy of those recordkeeping requirements. In the performance of their role, the Negotiator will exercise limited discretion in drafting and negotiating and will rely on the use of the bank’s standard templates, fallbacks, and guides.
