“We will bring our global and regional product strengths to our Asia Pacific footprint, while focusing on priority clients, delivering reliable flow products, and offering high value solutions. Supported by investment to deliver the GBM Asia Pacific ambition we will become a Top 5 wholesale bank in our chosen markets.”

John McCormick
CEO, Global Banking & Markets, Asia Pacific

“Asia Finance is a diverse function at the forefront of many regional & global initiatives. This represents a unique opportunity for high-calibre Finance professionals who want to progress their career in an environment of unprecedented change.”

Mark Arnold
Regional Head Asia Pacific Finance

“My first five years in London and throughout the period of the RBS-NatWest integration gave me great training and development opportunities, as well as time in a number of roles across different business areas including both client-facing and business development roles. I spent 12 months managing the Finance integration and then moved on to head up the Product Control team. In 2003 I was appointed CFO for Singapore and Southeast Asia. In 2006 we embarked on the creation of a global finance centre in Singapore to support GBM’s growing business. In two years, the team trebled in size, and now we’re expanding further. We have made a massive investment in technology and infrastructure to create a finance centre in the Asian time zone that will support our businesses around the world, and there’s further investment underway. We are looking for highly talented people who want to join an organisation where being customer-focused, team oriented, performance driven and entrepreneurial are not only spoken about, they are delivered.”

Justin Mullany
Head of Asia Finance Global Services
Location: Singapore

“I was a Product Controller at Barclays Capital, initially specialising in investment banking origination and distribution, and prior to that I was with Arthur Andersen in Mergers and Acquisitions. I was attracted to RBS GBM for the tremendous opportunities, the challenges in growing the business and the chance to work with bright and dynamic individuals. This is clearly a bank that demands the highest level of excellence from its employees – but in turn it ensures rapid advancement to those who demonstrate their ability to make a difference. Indeed, there is no better time than now to be part of this growth story.”
