Retail and Corporate Banking Jobs


Retail banking deals with the lending of money to individuals and small businesses, and the management of these customers’ funds. Corporate banking – or investment banking – deals with large corporations only, not direct consumers. Corporate bankers usually work in investment banks, helping to raise capital for medium to large businesses.


The retail banking environment has evolved considerably in recent years. Fierce competition from e-banking rivals and the rise of other personal finance players has led to a complete modernisation of the industry with fewer branches and a greater number of automated phone and online services. And it’s fair to say that the fluctuating economy has added to the complexity of the corporate banking environment.


In spite of the changes in the industry, retail and corporate banking remain fascinating sectors to work in, with highly qualified and skilled individuals being more in demand than ever. Competition for roles may be tough, but major employers are always looking for people who can manage and maintain strong customer relationships – and develop new ones.


Typical Roles & Responsibilities


Typical job roles in the retail and corporate banking category include:


    • Branch managers – who will be responsible for managing a team and leading the overall strategy of that branch


    • Corporate Banker – managing customer relationships and advising on finance products for medium to large enterprises.


    • Sales and marketing – there are a range of roles on offer in both retail and corporate banking, covering the development of promotions, PR and communications, direct sales, e-marketing and branding.


    • Human resources – this department manages the recruitment, training and development of a bank’s personnel.


    • Financial Advisers (IFAs) - advising clients on personal finance products such as insurance, pensions, mortgages, savings and investments.


    • Credit and risk – typical roles involve assessing risk levels with loan applications and approving/denying requests.


Skills and qualifications required in retail and corporate banking


Retail and corporate banking employers generally expect a degree, particularly for management roles, and not necessarily in a finance-related subject. The ideal applicant should be able to demonstrate excellent interpersonal skills, resilience, commitment, teamwork, business acumen and numeracy.


Since many roles in this sector are customer-driven and often customer-facing, having highly developed interpersonal and communication skills are also of the utmost importance to employers.


Several employers will also require the ability to question current practices and suggest new ideas that may take them ahead of the competition.


Career Progression within Retail and Corporate Banking


Many graduates enter the banking sector as banking trainees or analysts, and work their way up to a directorial position. Each bank has its own structure, but broadly speaking, you can expect to spend at least two to five years at each management ‘grade’ before progressing. With progression comes greater responsibility for managing your customers, typically the management of a team and, of course, greater financial rewards.


The banking coalface is supported by teams in HR, IT, Operations and Marketing. Each of these teams generally follows a similar pattern of progression, again from entry-level, trainee roles through to Senior Management.


Professional Qualifications for Retail and Corporate Banking professionals


For retail and corporate banking, no formal qualifications are required, although many employers will fund (partially or fully) the pursuit of one or more of the most common certifications.


The Certificate in Financial Planning is a globally recognised professional certification and the most prestigious that can be awarded. The qualification demonstrates a knowledge and understanding of regulatory issues, the main investment products and the process of giving advice to clients.


The Investment Management Certificate (IMC) is an FSA-approved examination that tests knowledge of the regulations and practices of financial markets, the categories of securities and the principles of investment management.
