The Team
The Global Payments Solutions (GPS) EMEA Financial Institutions (FI) Group is one of the fastest-growing and most internationally focussed client teams in GPS. We are in an active growth phase. Based in Milan, you will be responsible for expanding our franchise across Southern Europe and the Eastern Mediterranean through new mandate acquisition, increased wallet share and sustainable revenue growth, while strengthening Bank of America's position across three distinct and dynamic markets. Your primary focus will be Italy, with additional coverage responsibility for Greek and Israeli financial institutions, and regional and global origination responsibilities for a diversified portfolio of Bank and Non-Bank Financial Institution (NBFI) clients headquartered in those markets, including their subsidiaries worldwide.
Responsibilities
This is an origination-led role. The Treasury Sales Officer (TSO) is responsible for identifying, developing and converting business opportunities across an assigned portfolio of Bank and NBFI clients. Success in this role will be measured through new mandates won, growth in product penetration, increased wallet share and sustainable revenue generation.
Target sub-sectors include traditional and cooperative banks; insurance companies, where we see significant opportunity across collections, payments, liquidity and FX; asset and wealth managers; and fintech and payment technology firms including PSPs, neobanks, card companies and merchants. The TSO works closely with Corporate Banking, Global Treasury Sales colleagues and key Product partners (cash management, FX, card, trade and liquidity) to shape solutions that meet client needs.
Originate and win new mandates. Identify, shape and convert new opportunities - including with institutions where the bank has no existing GPS relationship - developing tailored solutions aligned to client needs and delivering against explicit new-business targets
Own the market development agenda for Italy, Greece and Israel: define the coverage strategy, map the client and prospect universe, and set clear growth priorities across banks, insurers and the wider NBFI segment
Hold primary relationship and GPS sales responsibility for a portfolio of Bank and NBFI clients headquartered in the target markets, alongside their subsidiaries globally
Grow existing relationships by expanding product penetration and wallet share; understand client treasury objectives and match the bank's capabilities against those requirements to deliver incremental revenue
Build and sustain senior-level relationships across client organisations, from treasury and operations through to C-suite decision-makers
Represent Bank of America across the covered markets - with clients, prospects, industry bodies, regulators and at relevant conferences and forums - raising the profile of our GPS franchise
Lead the end-to-end deal process: design, write and present proposals and cash management solutions, lead formal RFP responses, and drive mandates through to implementation and revenue realisation
Ensure complete alignment in client selection and growth strategies with Corporate Banking colleagues
Deliver revenue and pipeline in line with agreed goals, with disciplined account planning and CRM hygiene
Ensure full observance of and adherence to applicable compliance, regulatory, sanctions and risk requirements and guidelines
Provide client, market and competitive insights to management and business partners to support product development, solution enhancement and franchise growth.
Act as a liaison with Corporate Banking, Investment Banking, Credit and Risk, Compliance, Product Management, Client Delivery & Service, Implementation and Operations
