What is the opportunity?
As a Director on the BC Real Estate team, you will be responsible for business development and management of a portfolio of commercial real estate clients, with a primary focus on providing lending solutions for low-rise and high-rise residential real estate projects as well as income producing real estate.

Other responsibilities include maintaining your portfolio in good credit health, including proactively managing credit expiries, securities and reporting requirements.
What will you do?
Deliver on financing requests to assist with income producing real estate, predevelopment, land servicing and construction costs for low-rise and high-rise residential projects, including large, complex syndicated transactions;
Oversee loan structuring and maintain responsibility for quality of credit underwriting;
Mentor and coach Associate Directors in deal structuring, negotiation skills, RBC lending guidelines, policies and risk appetite, profitability requirements;
Proactively maintain the health and integrity of accounts from a portfolio quality management perspective;
Through long-term strategic planning with clients, maintain an ongoing sales pipeline of real estate transactions and identify opportunities where RBC can support our clients through platforms outside of real estate financing (e.g. Residential Mortgage program, Private Banking, Capital Markets, Commercial Mortgages); and
Develop and maintain a strong external network in the BC real estate community, including lending syndicate partners, law firms, cost consultants, etc.
