The Opportunity

This role is the senior finance partner for Capital Markets & Advisory globally and Transaction Banking in Asia, providing independent financial advice and constructive challenge to senior CIB leaders. You’ll hold end-to-end accountability for financial performance, strategic planning and decision support across a broad portfolio spanning capital markets, advisory, financing and transaction banking activities. The role sits at the centre of strategic and financial decision-making, shaping where the businesses invest and how resources are deployed. Success means turning complex product, client and regional performance into clear insight, credible plans and measurable actions. You’ll connect decisions across products and regions, influencing outcomes without direct authority while maintaining strong governance and transparency. You’ll also ensure strategic choices are reflected clearly in financial plans and reported outcomes across revenue, returns, costs, balance sheet and capital.

What you'll be doing

• Act as the principal finance adviser to relevant CIB Executive Committee members and senior business leadership across Capital Markets & Advisory and Transaction Banking Asia
• Build trusted relationships with senior product, regional and functional leaders, providing independent advice and constructive challenge on strategy, performance and resource allocation
• Oversee planning, forecasting and performance management across revenues, costs, returns, capital, balance sheet and other relevant measures
• Translate complex product, client, deal and regional performance into clear executive-level insight and measurable management actions
• Provide an integrated view of performance across Capital Markets & Advisory, including interdependencies, revenue-sharing arrangements and movement of activity between products and regions
• Partner with Transaction Banking leadership in Asia to assess performance, growth opportunities, investment requirements and regional and country-level priorities
• Shape finance input into business strategy including product strategy, client prioritisation, regional presence, organisational design and investment decisions
• Govern financial integrity for material transactions, financial arrangements and revenue-attribution methodologies across products, borders and legal entities

What we're looking for

• Bring substantial senior finance leadership experience supporting a global CIB, investment banking, capital markets or similarly complex financial services business
• Demonstrate experience as a primary finance partner to CIB Executive Committee members or executives with equivalent enterprise-wide accountability
• Apply deep practical understanding of Capital Markets & Advisory businesses including advisory, equity capital markets, debt or financing products and their revenue, cost and capital drivers
• Show experience supporting multi-product and multi-region businesses across legal entities with significant cross-border and cross-product interdependencies
• Evidence ownership of planning, forecasting and performance management across revenue, costs, returns, balance sheet and capital
• Bring experience advising on business strategy, product priorities, regional or country presence, investment decisions and resource allocation
• Demonstrate financial control, accounting and governance capability across complex regulatory and legal-entity environments
• Hold a chartered accountant qualification or equivalent senior-level professional finance qualification, or bring equivalent demonstrable experience

Finance at the centre of CIB

If you want to influence the strategic direction of Capital Markets & Advisory globally and Transaction Banking in Asia, this role gives you the remit to do it with real breadth and visibility. You’ll help shape investment choices, connect performance across products and regions and ensure commitments translate into credible plans and outcomes. The work is high-impact and closely tied to senior decision-making across the business. If this scope matches the work you want to own next, we’d welcome your application.
