Fixed Income Portfolio Manager

Join us as a Fixed Income Investment Portfolio Manager

• You’ll actively manage NatWest Treasury’s portfolios of high-quality liquid assets as part of a six-person team
• Your initial focus will be asset backed securities (ABS), including analysing, buying and monitoring performance using specialist tools such as Intex and Bloomberg
• Over time, you’ll gain exposure to government, supranational and covered bonds across multiple currencies, as well as hedging with interest rate swaps, and supporting repo and collateral activity
• You’ll manage the full lifecycle of an ABS portfolio, from credit papers and issuer meetings to collateral reporting, while building broader fixed income and balance sheet management expertise

What you'll do

In this front office with significant delegated responsibility, you’ll manage fixed income securities portfolios in line with risk appetite and PRA guidelines.

You’ll also:

• Manage relationships with internal stakeholders and external counterparties, including global investment banks and issuers
• Maintain strong market knowledge and a deep understanding of the regulatory environment
• Analyse P&L, risk, liquidity and financial resources, preparing recurring and ad hoc analysis for Treasury leadership
• Improve systems, processes and controls to support high operational and risk management standards
• Use your market knowledge and experience to coach peers and support colleagues

The skills you'll need

You’ll bring strong communication skills, excellent attention to detail in an operational environment, and the ability to work under pressure to deadlines.

Your prior experience must include asset backed securities. Prime RMBS is the most relevant asset class for us, with experience sought in trading or portfolio management as well as research and modelling. Exceptional candidates without ABS experience may be considered if they have deep rates trading or portfolio management experience.

We're also looking for:

• Strong numerical skills from a quantitative background
• Someone who enjoys numbers and data, and potentially coding
• The curiosity and initiative to improve processes and develop new products
• Good collaboration and teamworking skills
