The Commercial Division sales team provides top-tier service and banking products to the largest clients of M&T Bank. Our 21 sales businesses maintain separate areas of expertise but collaborate to ensure we collectively meet the full spectrum of our customers’ varied needs.

This highly visible role requires a unique combination of analytical ability, strategic thinking, and broad-based communication skills.
Primary Responsibilities:Evaluate, design, execute, and monitor incentive compensation programs for Commercial sales teams, with a focus on building both proactive and reactive solutions as needs are identified.
