Summary

I'm a dedicated Personal Banker with a strong track record in sales, consistently exceeding targets by understanding customer needs and delivering tailored financial solutions. I have a knack for identifying potential business lending clients , whether they're walk-ins or phone inquiries, and building strong relationships through genuine conversations and problem-solving. I am fluent in both English and Chinese, which allows me to effectively communicate with a diverse range of clients. This advantage helps me build strong relationships and provide tailored solutions to a broader customer base. I act as a key link between clients and the business relationship manager, ensuring smooth communication, effective follow-ups, and a great customer experience. My ability to ask the right questions and find the best solutions helps drive business banking opportunities while keeping clients engaged and satisfied. Beyond the sales, I also play a crucial role in supporting the Branch Manager, helping keep daily operations running smoothly. I'm excited about the Assistant Business Relationship Manager role and confident that my expertise in sales, client management, and branch support will allow me to hit the ground running and add real value to the team.
