About The Position

Citi is seeking a Vice President- or Associate-level professional to help distribute secured bonds and loans to institutional investors across asset-backed securities (ABS) and residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS), covering a broad range of asset classes and industries. These include U.S.-denominated and cross-border consumer loans and leases, corporate loans, project finance and infrastructure, transportation, renewables, and intellectual property.

The Syndicate desk sits at the center of transaction distribution, connecting issuers with sales and investors to deliver capital-raising solutions. It identifies and develops new distribution ideas for issuers, and guides issuers through marketing, book building, execution, and pricing of new-issue structured debt.

The team’s broad coverage across asset classes offers exposure to markets and the opportunity to work with corporate CFOs and treasurers, asset managers, insurance companies, banks, and hedge funds. Citi’s ABS F&S franchise is described as an industry leader, consistently ranking at the top of league tables across multiple asset classes.

The role serves a diverse issuer base—including banks, specialty finance companies, lenders, corporates, and other financial and commercial organizations—and institutional investors such as money managers, hedge funds, insurers, sovereigns, state funds, corporate treasuries, and bank treasuries. Other job-related duties may be assigned as required.
