The Head of Financial Institutions Group (FIG) leads ANZ’s Philippines coverage of banks, insurers, asset managers, and other financial institutions. The role typically requires substantial corporate or institutional banking experience, strong knowledge of financial markets and credit, proven people leadership, and an established network with senior clients and regulators. The successful candidate is expected to develop and execute the FIG strategy, originate lending and transaction-banking opportunities, manage portfolio quality and risk, strengthen client relationships, and collaborate across product and regional teams. Strong commercial judgment, communication, negotiation, regulatory awareness, and the ability to lead a high-performing team are essential. A relevant university degree and experience in a senior relationship-management or financial-institutions role would normally be expected.
ANZ, or Australia and New Zealand Banking Group, is one of the major banking groups in the Asia-Pacific region. Headquartered in Melbourne, Australia, it provides retail, commercial, institutional, and private banking services across Australia, New Zealand, and selected Asian markets. ANZ supports businesses, governments, institutions, and individuals through lending, transaction banking, markets, trade finance, investment solutions, and financial advice. Its institutional business works with large companies and financial institutions on cross-border funding, liquidity, risk management, and capital-market needs. In the Philippines, ANZ operates mainly through institutional and corporate banking activities, connecting local clients with regional and global markets. The bank emphasizes responsible banking, risk management, collaboration, customer outcomes, and inclusive workplaces. Compensation and benefits for senior roles generally include fixed pay, performance incentives, healthcare, retirement-related benefits, and professional development opportunities.
The Philippines offers strong opportunities in banking, shared services, technology, fintech, outsourcing, logistics, tourism, and multinational corporate operations. Manila and nearby Makati, Taguig, and Pasig are the main centers for senior financial-services careers, while Cebu and Davao also have growing business communities. Filipino culture is generally warm, family-oriented, sociable, and respectful, with English widely used in business. Lifestyle options range from busy city living, restaurants, and shopping to beaches, diving, hiking, and island travel. Costs vary considerably; central Manila housing and traffic can be challenging, while Cebu may offer a more relaxed alternative. Foreign professionals normally need an employer-sponsored work visa, commonly a 9(g) employment visa, and should confirm requirements with Philippine authorities. Relocating employees should arrange valid employment documentation, health insurance, housing, tax advice, and local banking before arrival. Weather is tropical, with a dry season and a wetter typhoon season.
