WHAT IS THE OPPORTUNITY?

The Enterprise Liquidity Parameters (ELP) team within RBC Corporate Treasury is at the forefront of enterprise liquidity research and parameterization for a comprehensive suite of retail, wholesale banking, and trading products. This critical work enables RBC to identify liquidity and funding risks while cost-effectively positioning the balance sheet to withstand a wide range of normal and stressed market conditions. The ELP team collaborates closely with the Funds Transfer Pricing (FTP) team, which leverages liquidity assumptions to assign funding charges and rebates to RBC’s wholesale businesses. Together, these teams provide strategic advice to front-office business partners, helping them understand how liquidity treatments impact their cost of doing business.

As part of this dynamic team, the Associate Director will take end-to-end ownership of liquidity documentation, research, analytics, and implementation for a portfolio of products, including retail/commercial deposits, cash management, loans, credit commitments, liquidity facilities, securities, derivatives, commodities, and futures clearing. The successful candidate will develop expertise in internal liquidity metrics, global liquidity regulations, and act as a strategic partner to front-office colleagues to maximize liquidity-adjusted ROE. This role involves frequent interaction with senior leaders across Business, Finance, Treasury, and Risk functions.

WHAT WILL YOU DO?

• Manage a portfolio of liquidity parameters, conducting inaugural, annual, and re-reviews. Challenge existing assessments to align with evolving business growth, risk appetite, and regulatory changes.
• Update and maintain liquidity documentation to ensure it comprehensively articulates relevant risk considerations and meets internal and external regulatory expectations.
• Serve as the primary point of contact for liquidity parameter concerns, working closely with Capital Markets, local Treasury teams, Group Risk Management (GRM), Internal Audit (IA), and Technology partners.
• Support the implementation process of any parameterization changes on downstream measurement processes.
• Be responsive to a wide variety of ad-hoc analysis, research, and presentation work to analyze new or enhanced products and business strategies pertaining to liquidity and funding treatments.
• Provide advice and support to the New Business Committee on liquidity treatments for new initiatives.
• Support FTP-related activities, particularly in the context of liquidity premiums.
• Assist with regulatory and external audit activities related to LCR, NSFR, and NCCF, focusing on interpretation and compliance.

WHAT DO YOU NEED TO SUCCEED?

• Master’s degree in a relevant field (e.g., Finance, Economics, Business, or a related discipline).
• Minimum of 5 years of experience in Treasury, Product, or Risk Management roles.
• Strong understanding of liquidity risk principles and guidelines. In-depth knowledge of banking products and their associated characteristics.
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to convey complex concepts in a clear and concise manner to diverse stakeholders.

• Advanced skills in Microsoft Office and SQL
