Banking, Custody & Structuring Relationships Manager

Silverline Capital Group is hiring a

Banking, Custody & Structuring Relationships Manager to run the banking, custody and structuring relationships behind our cross-border business — globally.

We're looking for someone who already knows the right people at the right banks, and knows how to get a result from them.

ABOUT SILVERLINE

Silverline Capital Group is a cross-border wealth and structured-products group.

We work with professional intermediaries and their clients across Europe, Latin America and the GCC.

Our job is to keep the banking, custody and structuring behind those services running across the countries we operate in.

THE ROLE

You will manage Silverline's relationships with the banks, custodians and other counterparties we rely on to operate.

The point of the role is practical: client money has to move, accounts have to open, structures have to be set up, and products have to settle on time, in every country we work in.

We need someone who already has these relationships and knows how to use them.

The work covers Switzerland but is not limited to it — the remit is global.

• WHAT YOU'LL OWN
• Banking, custody & counterparty relationships
• Manage the day-to-day relationship with each bank, custodian and counterparty: regular contact, service reviews, issue resolution, escalation and SLA management.
• Keep a resilient network of counterparties across the jurisdictions we use, so the group never depends on a single bank.

Support due diligence and onboarding of new banking and custody partners as we open new corridors.

• Run correspondent-banking and custody operations: nostro/vostro and correspondent relationships, custody account maintenance, settlement and asset‑servicing coordination.
• Oversee payments and cash: payment execution, settlement, reconciliation breaks, FX flows, and failed or returned payments.
• Client & account onboarding
• Take each new client account from KYC-complete through to live and funded at the bank, across the relevant jurisdictions.
• Keep documentation packs, bank onboarding requirements and counterparty contacts up to date, and clear whatever is holding an account opening up.
• Structuring & implementation (coordination with partners)
• Coordinate the set-up of corporate vehicles, SPVs and investment structures with our legal, corporate-services, administration and issuance partners, from formation through to bankable and operational.
• Coordinate product and AMC set-up with manufacturing and issuance partners: ISIN and instrument readiness, booking, settlement and lifecycle servicing, so products are ready on or before their distribution date.
• Set up the accounts, connectivity and procedures that turn a newly signed partnership into a working channel.
• Across all three — control & reporting
• Keep the control environment in order: operating procedures, reconciliations, exception logs, operational‑risk monitoring and one reliable source of data for banking, custody and structuring.
• Report to leadership on network capacity, onboarding volumes, settlement and payment failure rates, and counterparty performance, and build the operational base the function will need as it grows.
• THE NETWORK YOU'LL MANAGE
• The counterparties and partners this role deals with around the world
• Global custodians, sub‑custodians and agent banks
• Private and depositary banks
• EMIs, payment institutions and IBAN / virtual-account providers
• Prime brokers and broker‑dealers
• Fund administrators and transfer agents
• Securitisation and AMC / structured‑note issuance platforms
• Paying, calculation and listing agents
• CSDs / ICSDs (Euroclear, Clearstream) and numbering agencies (ISIN/WKN/CUSIP)
• Trust and corporate-service providers (TCSPs), domiciliation and company‑formation agents
• Insurance carriers (PPLI / unit‑linked wrappers)
• Law firms, notaries, auditors and tax advisers supporting structures
• WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE
• Accounts open within SLA in every active corridor, and the time from KYC-complete to live-and-funded beats target.
• High on‑time payment and settlement rates, with few reconciliation breaks and little ageing on them.
• Banks, custodians and correspondents meet their service levels and availability.
• Products and structures are operationally ready on or before their distribution date, with no settlement defects.
• A broad enough counterparty network that no single bank can hold the group up.
• A clean control environment, with no critical audit or operational‑risk findings.

WHAT YOU BRING

• An established network of relationships with banks and the counterparties listed above.

This matters more than anything else on this list.

We are looking for someone who can call the right person at a bank and get a result, rather than build those contacts from scratch.

• At least eight to ten years in banking, custody or transaction‑banking operations, or in financial‑institution relationship management.

Ideally in wealth management, private banking, an investment house, a fund administrator or a corporate‑services (TCSP) firm.

• Practical knowledge of account opening, payments and settlement, custody, nostro/vostro and correspondent banking across more than one jurisdiction.
• Direct exposure to cross‑border company and SPV structuring, and to the operational lifecycle of structured products and AMCs, working alongside legal, administration and issuance partners.
• Strong operational‑risk, reconciliation and control discipline, with procedures written well enough that a new team member could pick them up and run them.
• Good judgement about where operational handling ends and regulated activity begins, and where to route the latter.
• Comfortable working across countries and time zones (UK, Europe, Latin America, the GCC), and willing to travel in the UK and abroad.
• Right to work in the UK.
• NICE TO HAVE
• Existing relationships in Switzerland, plus one or more of: UK, Luxembourg, Liechtenstein, Singapore, UAE, US.
• Languages: English is essential; Portuguese, Spanish, German or French would help.
• Experience setting up banking and structuring operations for a growing firm.
• SCOPE & BOUNDARIES

This is an operational and coordination role.

It does not involve regulated activity such as advice, discretionary management, custody as principal, credit or issuance.

Anything of that kind goes to the relevant regulated partner for the jurisdiction.

On structuring, the role coordinates the work with partners rather than acting as principal.

WHAT WE OFFER

• Competitive salary plus a discretionary performance bonus.
• Hybrid working, split between our central London office and home.
• Workplace pension with employer contribution.
• 21 days' annual leave plus UK bank holidays, with the option to buy more.
• All business travel paid, in the UK and abroad.
• Professional development: training, professional‑body memberships and study support.
• Real scope and visibility. You report to the Group CEO, hold a global remit, and can build and lead your own team as the work grows.

Silverline Capital Group is an equal‑opportunity employer. We welcome applications from all backgrounds and will discuss reasonable adjustments at any stage.
