Investec is a distinctive Specialist Bank serving clients principally in the UK and South Africa. Our culture gives us our edge: we work hard to find colleagues who'll think out of the ordinary and we put them in environments where they'll flourish. We combine a flat structure with a focus on internal mobility. If you can bring an entrepreneurial spirit and a desire to learn and collaborate to your work, this could be the boost your career deserves.

Investec Corporate Banking is building something distinctive in the UK mid‑market: a banking experience that feels personal, entrepreneurial and firmly on the client's side. As “the bank behind extraordinary businesses,” we partner with ambitious mid‑market companies through both good and challenging moments, offering clarity, confidence and a genuinely human experience.

The UK mid‑market is still shaped by large incumbents and niche challengers, creating an opportunity for a banking partner that truly understands clients' world and moves at their pace. Our Relationship Directors are central to this: proactive, trusted advisors who help clients navigate complexity, unlock opportunity and turn ambition into meaningful progress. You will join a dynamic, collaborative team shaping the next chapter of Investec Corporate Banking.

What Success Looks Like

Success in this role means clients genuinely feel Investec is on their side—experiencing clarity, commitment and a strong sense of partnership. You build a reputation for navigating complexity, spotting opportunities and using good judgement to create momentum. Your impact is reflected through the stories clients tell, the depth of your relationships and the consistently out‑of‑the‑ordinary service you provide. You also deliver on agreed goals across new‑to‑bank growth, revenue, product penetration and portfolio quality, with high performance recognised and rewarded.

What Will I Be Doing?

Business Development

You will build deep, long‑term relationships with mid‑market companies using your network and market insight. You'll identify opportunities that create long‑term value, collaborate with colleagues across Investec to deliver the right solutions, and use market‑leading tools—including AI—to analyse trends and turn insights into action.

Client Partnership & Solution Delivery

You'll anticipate client needs, risks and opportunities, often acting before being prompted. You will connect clients to the full breadth of Investec's expertise across lending, treasury, cash management, transactional banking, equity and advisory teams—helping simplify complexity, guide confident decisions and celebrate client milestones.

Strategic Portfolio & Risk Management

You'll manage portfolio performance and ensure credit, regulatory and reputational risks are identified, escalated and addressed. You'll work with specialist desks to shape strategies that balance profitability with long‑term relationship strength.

Collaboration & Innovation

You will coordinate a seamless client experience across service, risk, operations and technology. You'll partner closely with our Private Client teams when personal and business needs intersect and contribute to the development of innovative, compliant solutions for the mid‑market.

Mentoring & Leadership

You will mentor Associate RMs and specialist colleagues, supporting their development and encouraging a culture of curiosity, collaboration and high performance.
