I believe I will continue to grow here, not only in my career development but also in my personal wellbeing.

I joined Bank of China as a university graduate and I believe I have found the best place for me. From the first day my priority was always to learn. This was quickly recognised by my department, which provided me with the platform to grow, and my colleagues have been very helpful in the guidance they have provided me with along my journey. There are ample opportunities to grow with the Bank and it all depends on how much one would like to develop themselves.

I have been working at Bank of China for almost 8 years. In March 2022 I was promoted to VP - Head of Customer Due Diligence and I lead the CDD Unit. There are so many great things about working for the company. My favourite is probably the Bank's commitment to identifying talent and nurturing them to develop into great leaders. The Bank embraces employees of all experience levels, backgrounds, and beliefs. They understand the value of a diverse team and make efforts to hire a variety of people. Working here has really enhanced my knowledge, my understanding of different cultures, leadership skills and a sense of direction for the future.
