About the Opportunity

As a key member of Canadian Commercial Banking, in the role of Managing Director, Mid-Market, M&A Advisory you will be responsible for developing and managing relationships with business clients, delivering tailored financial solutions, and helping Canadian companies achieve their growth ambitions. You will leverage Scotiabank’s extensive capabilities to provide strategic advice, identify opportunities, and deliver an exceptional client experience while contributing to the overall success of the Commercial Banking business.

•    Champion a client-focused culture to deepen relationships and deliver value-added financial solutions.
•    Build and manage a portfolio of commercial banking clients, identifying opportunities to grow existing relationships and acquire new business.
•    Develop a strong market presence through networking, industry associations, community involvement, and referral partnerships.
•    Partner with internal stakeholders and product specialists to deliver integrated commercial banking solutions.
•    Analyze client financial information and business strategies to structure credit and banking solutions that meet client needs while balancing risk and return.
•    Negotiate and structure credit facilities and other financial solutions in accordance with the Bank's risk appetite and policies.

What You Will Bring to the Team:

You are a seasoned commercial banker and a trusted adviser, the person clients turn to when the decisions matter most. You have grown and retained significant client portfolios, and you bring sound judgment to analyzing financials, assessing credit risk, and structuring solutions that create value for both the client and the Bank. You lead through influence, negotiate with confidence, and keep multiple priorities moving without losing sight of the client experience. Your business, finance, or related degree is the foundation, and an MBA, CFA, or CPA, treasury management expertise, or an established local business network will set you further apart.

•    Strong communication, presentation, negotiation, and influencing skills.
•    Excellent organizational and time-management skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities.
•    Sound knowledge of commercial lending principles, credit adjudication, and risk management practices.
•    Commitment to delivering an exceptional client experience.

Nice-to-Have

•    MBA, CFA, CPA, or other relevant professional designation.
•    Advanced knowledge of commercial banking products and treasury management solutions.
•    Experience serving clients in specialized industries or complex lending environments.
