We are looking for an experienced Business Manager at HSBC Private Bank
This role sits within the Distribution Business Management team, acting as a strategic enablement partner to Distribution leadership and as a key driver of performance, governance, cost discipline, and transformation delivery. The remit has also evolved to play a meaningful role in shaping and delivering our Women & Wealth proposition—a growth priority aligned to the CEO’s vision and future opportunities across family offices, women, and next-gen clients.
If you’re a commercially-minded business manager who can combine structure with creativity—building plans, influence, and momentum in an evolving space—this is a high-impact opportunity.
Key responsibilities
- Enable Distribution strategy and leadership cadence: coordinate priorities, roadmaps, forums, and materials, ensuring alignment to overall PB strategy.
- Drive business performance insights: oversee dashboards, scorecards, and monthly performance packs (via offshore support), translating data into clear takeaways and escalations.
- Support CEO/Executive agenda and communications: coordinate inputs, develop briefing packs, and shape messaging for senior stakeholders.
- Deliver transformation and change: mobilise and govern key initiatives (including VSIP demand/prioritisation), improve ways of working, and drive automation/optimisation across reporting and processes.
- Own cost, resource, and workforce discipline: manage direct cost views (FRP/forecast/run rate), support resource planning, and identify sustainable optimisation opportunities.
- Run governance, risk, and controls: coordinate governance forums and follow-ups, maintain BCM across onshore/offshore teams, and support a strong compliance and controls culture in line with internal procedures.
