Citi Australia has appointed Will Langley as the CFO for Citi's Australia and New Zealand Cluster, subject to local regulatory and compliance approvals.

As CFO, Will Langley will steward the company's local financial operations, and as a member of the Executive Committee, he will play a contributing role in driving Citi's Australian and New Zealand strategic growth plans.

Will brings to Citi a strong financial acumen and track record gained during his nearly thirty-year career in global banking across the Netherlands, Singapore, London, and Australia.

Most recently, Will was the Program Director at ANZ Bank with the responsibility to establish ANZ Group Holdings Limited, a non-operating holding company (NOHC), as the new ANZ parent company listed on the ASX. This complex initiative also involved separating ANZ's banking and non-banking businesses into separate groups, with approval required by APRA, shareholders and the Federal Court via a Scheme of Arrangement.

Prior to the NOHC initiative, Will held a series of senior positions at ANZ including Head of Finance for Institutional Australia and Papua New Guinea and was a member of ANZ's Institutional Australia Leadership Team. Before his time at ANZ, Will spent several years with Westpac Institutional Bank in Singapore and Sydney, the Royal Bank of Scotland in Singapore, Sydney and London, and ING in the Netherlands."

Mark Woodruff, CEO Australia said, "Will's strong credentials in leading complex programs of work, as well as his track record in prudent financial management in global organizations will make him a valuable member of our team. We are delighted to welcome such a highly credentialed and experienced professional to Citi."

Will Langley will be based in Citi's Sydney office and will report to Mark Woodruff, CEO Citi Australia and New Zealand and Mateus Almeida, CFO of North & East Asia Cluster & Hong Kong.

According to Will Langley, "Citi has a global footprint and services offering that is unique in the Australian marketplace, as well as an impressive, ambitious team. I am excited to join Citi and contribute to their ambitious growth plans by playing a guiding role in the financial future of the local operations".
