Relationship Manager ("RM") is able to handle both (i) client-facing business development responsibilities as well as (ii) portfolio management responsibilities. This type of RM is typically found in lending teams with a smaller number of people where someone may need to carry out both functions. In a larger lending team, this title can exist for someone who wants to transition from PM to SRM but is not quite ready for the loan goal targets of a SRM.
This position's function is to identify and bring new loan clients and be able to manage an existing portfolio assigned to them.
- Identify and bring new clients to the Bank. Each RM should have a specific new loan commitment/outstanding goal set by their Team Manager every year.
- RM is to negotiate and structure the primary terms of the loan with the client; circulate concept memo if needed prior to issuance of term sheet/LOI.
- Work with designated underwriter, loan assistants and other loan support staff to prepare the Credit Commitment Report ("CCR") for new loans, renewals, amendments and annual reviews.
- Present each CCR to the requisite approval authority levels. The finished CCR is the work product of a team but the RM is ultimately responsible for the content.
- Review loan documents, either internally prepared or by outside counsel, to ensure accuracy.
- Work with loan assistants and loan support staff to ensure all necessary items needed for the closing of the loan is in process and well-managed; RM is to manage the client experience of this process.
