Global Business Director - Banking

The GBD acts as a catalyst to bring Moody’s together in service of the customer. They are a strategic relationship manager who leads, develops and executes the global account strategy for major customers. They maximize financial and strategic value, align short term needs to longer term business strategies, and satisfy the customer's medium- and long-term business needs. They do so by sharing insights into the marketplace, uncovering customer needs, building awareness of how Moody’s can deliver on those, negotiating related deals, and partnering across the enterprise to deliver. The role requires the incumbent to pivot constantly: from the highly strategic to tactical execution; from influencing customer and Moody’s executives, to engaging those deep into both organizations; from being marketplace expert, to consummate deal-maker, to operations specialist. Above all, the GBD acts as the voice of the customer to Moody’s executives and elsewhere internally: they convey customer needs, and enable delivery on these. They are agnostic about product and operating unit, and act as the matchmaker, connecting the customer C-suite into Moody’s and driving complex, enterprise deals. They are at the forefront of market trends, anticipating where these are headed, implications for the customer, and ways that Moody’s can help. They ensure the company delivers against customer expectations, by leveraging a deep internal network to lead and influence large, virtual, global teams.While it has elements of both sales and operations, the GBD role is even more so about business and relationship management and executive engagement. It requires a rare combination of skills and experience, and opens up a wide range of opportunities for Moody’s, our customers - and the GBDs themselves.A position is available to manage customers within the industry.
