ASB is pleased to announce that Craig Sims has been appointed to the bank’s executive leadership team in the role of Executive General Manager, Retail Banking.

Mr Sims joins ASB from his previous role in Melbourne where he was tasked with improving the customer and banking experience at ANZ Australia.
