OVERVIEW OF THE DEPARTMENT/SECTION
Global Corporate & Investment Banking ("GCIB") is the division responsible for managing the Bank's key international client relationships and main financing products (Syndication, Structured & Project Finance, Securitisation, Working Capital Solutions, ECA financing, , etc.).
The role sits within the Strategy and Business Reporting (“SBR”) Team, ultimately reporting into the GCIB EMEA COO.
NUMBER OF DIRECT REPORTS
Whilst there are nil direct reports, as part of the role, the successful candidate would be responsible for managing Deal Screening minute takers who are typically GCIB graduates.
MAIN PURPOSE OF THE ROLE
The Strategy & Business Reporting (SBR) Team is responsible for managing the EMEA GCIB Deal Screening Committee (DSC), which forms the first and critical stage of MUFG’s credit approval process. Deal Screening ensures disciplined balance‑sheet deployment and liquidity management across all new and renewal business. The Committee convenes twice weekly, with an initial morning session (“AM” without Front Office attendance) followed by an afternoon session (“PM”) focused on more complex proposals that require Front Office participation. Decisions are made by a Quorum of senior GCIB leaders.
The successful candidate will play a central role in overseeing the end‑to‑end DSC process. Key responsibilities include:
Managing and maintaining the DSC booking template and coordinating partner reviews.
Ensuring Quorum availability and supporting effective session planning.
Capturing accurate minutes from the morning DSC session and providing clear guidance to Front Office teams ahead of afternoon presentations.
Delivering analytics on DSC throughput, performance trends, and follow‑up actions.
While Deal Screening will be the primary focus, the role will also support broader SBR deliverables, including ad‑hoc analysis and ownership of other recurring reporting responsibilities.
