# Head of Sustainable Finance – Wholesale Banking – Emirates NBD

Emirates NBD is hiring a Head of Sustainable Finance for its Wholesale Banking division, leading the bank’s approach to green and sustainability-linked lending, bond structuring, and ESG-aligned financing for corporate and institutional clients. Sustainable finance has moved from a niche specialty to a mainstream expectation among large corporates, and this role sits at the center of how Emirates NBD builds and delivers that offering.

Expect the role to involve structuring sustainability-linked loans and green financing products, advising corporate clients on ESG-aligned capital raising, and working closely with credit, risk, and relationship teams to embed sustainability considerations into wholesale banking more broadly. Emirates NBD positions itself as one of the most valuable and culturally diversified banking brands in the region, listed on the Dubai Financial Market, and sustainable finance leadership is part of how it maintains that standing as the market evolves.

A strong candidate brings genuine sustainable finance expertise, not just conventional corporate banking experience with an ESG label attached, and is comfortable being the technical authority that other teams rely on as sustainability-linked products become more complex and more scrutinized by regulators and investors alike.

## Requirements

- Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Economics, or a related field; a relevant sustainability or ESG finance certification is a strong advantage

- Substantial experience in sustainable finance, green bonds, or ESG-linked lending structures

- Deep understanding of sustainability frameworks and regulatory expectations relevant to wholesale banking

- Proven ability to structure and advise on sustainability-linked financing for corporate clients

- Strong cross-functional collaboration with credit, risk, and relationship management teams

- Excellent client-facing communication skills to explain complex ESG financing structures clearly

- Comfortable operating at a senior, strategic level while still engaging in technical deal structuring
