Head of PBWM Segment Management

The Private Banking Wealth Management (PBWM) Segment Management function is responsible not only for defining and steering the overall value proposition for Private Banking & Wealth Management clients, but also drives the creation of a dedicated Private Banking offering that goes beyond investment products. The area is responsible for developing exclusive solutions, services, and products tailored specifically to the Private segment, distinct from and more advanced than the Wealth offering, strengthening ING’s positioning in the Private Banking market. This role integrates segment strategy, marketing, operational support, performance analytics, and business case management to ensure a best‑in-class client and advisor experience across all channels. The Manager leads the development and execution of segment initiatives, drives commercial effectiveness, ensures the delivery of segment‑specific marketing and communication materials, and coordinates with Sales, CIO, Digital, and Product functions to deliver consistent, data‑driven outcomes.

• Segment Strategy & Value Proposition Ownership
  Define and lead the development of the Private Banking offering, including products, services, and tailored solutions specifically designed for the Private segment and extending beyond the standard Wealth investment offering.

Monitor commercial results, campaign performance, client behavior, and market trends. Identify growth opportunities and performance improvement levers.

• Operational Support
  Ensure operational support for advisory and servicing processes. Act as liaison between PBWM, Operations, IT, and other enabling functions. Support the local implementation of platform enhancements—both digital and advisory. Guarantee consistency and efficiency in client journeys, processes, and tools.

• Marketing & Communication
  Develop PBWM segment marketing plan, including campaigns, communication strategy, and events. Produce marketing materials supporting both client engagement and advisor activity. Ensure messaging consistency aligned with segment strategy and ING brand guidelines.

• Commercial & Network Support

• Cross‑Functional Coordination
  Act as the central orchestrator across PBWM Sales, CIO, Digital Sales, Product Development, and Advisory Desk. Coordinate end-to-end delivery of segment initiatives with multiple stakeholders. Represent the segment in cross‑departmental governance forums.

• Private Banking Offering Development
  Lead the design and delivery of dedicated Private Banking products and services, expanding beyond investment products to include exclusive solutions tailored to the needs and expectations of Private clients. Collaborate with Product, CIO, Advisory, and Sales teams to structure distinctive offerings such as exclusive products, premium services, specialized agreements, and personalized solutions for the Private segment. Ensure the Private Banking offering is competitive, differentiating, and aligned with ING’s strategic positioning.
