Middle Market Commercial Relationship Manager
Fort Lauderdale, FL
FinTrust Connect has partnered with a well capitalized regional financial institution to identify a Middle Market Commercial Relationship Manager for the Fort Lauderdale and Broward County market.
This is a strong opportunity for a proven commercial banker who understands Broward's business community and can build trusted relationships with privately held companies, family owned businesses, operating companies, entrepreneurs, and middle market clients.
The ideal candidate is a real relationship builder. Someone who knows how to source business, structure credit, work with internal partners, and build a high quality commercial portfolio over time. This is not a seat for someone who only wants to inherit a book. It is for someone who wants to grow one.
Why this opportunity?
Broward market growth: Fort Lauderdale and the broader Broward market continue to offer strong opportunity across professional services, logistics, healthcare, distribution, real estate related operating companies, manufacturing, marine, construction, and privately owned businesses.
Strong banking platform: You will have the support of an established regional bank with the leadership, credit partnership, treasury support, and product depth needed to compete for quality relationships.
Culture that matters: The bank is known for being relationship focused, collaborative, commercially minded, and intentional about hiring bankers who strengthen the team.
Visible impact: This is a growth hire in a key Florida market. The right banker will not be hidden inside a large machine. You will have the opportunity to help shape market growth.
Incentive alignment: Competitive base salary with performance based incentive opportunity tied to real production and relationship growth.
What you will do
Originate, build, and manage middle market commercial banking relationships throughout Fort Lauderdale, Broward County, and surrounding South Florida communities.
Develop new loan, deposit, treasury, and full relationship opportunities.
Build an active pipeline through direct outreach, COI relationships, client referrals, market intelligence, and consistent calling activity.
Serve as a trusted financial advisor to business owners, executives, and privately held companies.
Analyze financial information, cash flow, credit risk, collateral, guarantor strength, and business performance.
Structure commercial credit solutions in partnership with credit and portfolio management teams.
Identify cross sell opportunities across treasury management, deposits, lending, capital markets, and broader banking services.
Partner closely with credit, underwriting, treasury, portfolio management, and local leadership to deliver a high quality client experience.
Maintain market visibility and represent the bank with credibility and professionalism.
What we are looking for
7 plus years of commercial banking, middle market banking, C&I banking, corporate banking, or senior business banking experience.
Established business development track record in Broward County or the broader South Florida market.
Strong credit and cash flow analysis skills.
Experience managing commercial relationships with privately held businesses and operating companies.
Strong understanding of C&I lending, working capital lines, term debt, treasury management, deposits, and full relationship banking.
Ability to build business through COIs, referrals, direct calling, and market presence.
Strong client advisory skills and ability to communicate with business owners and executives.
Comfort working cross functionally with credit, treasury, underwriting, portfolio management, and leadership.
Strong reputation, high integrity, collaborative style, and low ego approach.
Bachelor's degree preferred, or equivalent relevant experience.
Ideal candidate profile This role is ideal for a Fort Lauderdale banker who has built real relationships in the market and wants to align with a bank that values culture, execution, client service, and performance.
You may be a strong fit if you are producing today but feel capped by credit appetite, internal friction, limited leadership support, or a compensation model that does not fully reward your impact.
Apply today If you are a commercial banker in Fort Lauderdale or Broward County and are curious about a confidential Middle Market opportunity with a strong regional banking platform, we would welcome a conversation.
