VP - Value Chain Finance Originations & Execution

Rabobank’s Value Chain Finance (VCF) team delivers bespoke asset-based financing solutions that unlock liquidity and working capital for leading companies across Food & Agriculture and the Energy Transition. The customized transactions are typically structured on a limited or non-recourse basis, including securitizations and receivables purchase facilities.

As a Vice President, you will operate as a true deal captain — support in originating opportunities, leading client conversations, structuring solutions, and driving transactions from first pitch through closing and beyond. You will combine commercial instinct, technical structuring expertise, and hands‑on execution to bring sophisticated financings to life.

This is a front‑office, high‑ownership role for someone who thrives at the intersection of client strategy, credit, structuring, modeling, and legal execution.

• Own transactions end‑to‑end — lead and support deals from initial client pitch, structuring, and credit approval through documentation, syndication, and closing
• Originate and shape opportunities alongside Relationship Managers by identifying working capital needs and translating them into tailored Value Chain Finance solutions
• Build and deliver compelling pitch materials and storylines, and over time independently lead client presentations and negotiations
• Structure and model complex asset‑based financings, including private securitizations, (securitized) asset‑based lending, and receivables purchase facilities
• Run the execution process — coordinate with the client, credit, risk, legal, external counsel, syndicate banks, and other internal stakeholders to drive timelines and close transactions
• Support and lead commercial negotiations with corporate clients and counter parties
• Evaluate credit and structural risks, ensuring opportunities fit within VCF’s risk appetite and deliver attractive risk‑adjusted returns
• Serve as a trusted advisor to clients and a go‑to execution leader within the broader VCF platform

• Bachelor’s degree required
• 7+ years of experience in wholesale banking, structured finance, asset‑based lending, securitizations, or working capital solutions
• Demonstrated experience running complex deals independently, not just supporting execution
• Strong financial modeling, structuring, and credit analysis skills
• Comfort operating directly with clients and senior stakeholders; strong commercial presence and negotiation skills
• Experience in Food & Agriculture and/or Energy Transition sectors preferred
• Ability to manage multiple work streams in a fast‑paced, transaction‑driven environment
• Willingness to travel regionally (up to 15%)
• Legally authorized to work in the United States on a full‑time basis (no visa sponsorship available)

• Front‑office ownership and direct client exposure
• High‑complexity, bespoke transactions (not commoditized lending)
• Opportunity to shape solutions that materially impact clients’ balance sheets
• Growing platform with meaningful responsibility and visibility
