Senior Manager, Strategic Bank Capital

Crux

6d • $200,000 - $300,000 • Remote

About The Position

Crux is hiring a commercial team member to help build and manage relationships with bank capital providers. The role supports bank coverage, pipeline development, and capital formation across debt, preferred equity, tax equity, and structured products. Working closely with the Head of Strategic Bank Capital, the Senior Manager will help expand bank participation across Crux's platform and progressively take day-to-day ownership of assigned bank relationships.

Strategic Bank Capital covers bank capital providers, including investor desks, treasury and principal investing groups, bank-sponsored funds and platforms, and warehouse and forward-flow counterparties. The team manages bank partnerships end to end, shaping demand early in the transaction lifecycle and collaborating with product teams across Capital Solutions. This role helps keep relationships organized and responsive from initial engagement through execution and repeat deployment.

The position coordinates across Investments, Debt Capital Markets, Tax Credit Markets, and Structuring & Pricing, and contributes to Crux's bank coverage strategy, capital initiatives, market intelligence, and broader franchise development. Crux operates remote-first, with employees able to work from anywhere in the US and Canada or from optional offices in DC, NYC, and SF.
