Hong Kong employers look to hire more relationship managers and data analysts next year
Relationship managers, customer due diligence officers and data analysts are some of Hong Kong’s hottest jobs in the coming year, according to human resource professionals.
In the current business environment, relationship managers will be one of the “hot jobs” in the financial services sector, according to Betty Lam, the head of human resources at DBS Bank in Hong Kong.
Outside private banking, relationship managers are also supporting small and medium-sized enterprises. The relationship managers are especially helpful in guiding these businesses through the challenges of Hong Kong’s current economic environment, Lam said.
The Singaporean bank went on a hiring spree this year, adding 106 new staffers – including 50 relationship managers. The rest support its private bankers, according to Lam.
Banks like HSBC Holdings and Standard Chartered have also signalled they would focus on more profitable parts of their business, including private and corporate banking.
