OCBC Bank designates new human resources head

Lee Hwee Boon will assume her new post on 24 June.

Lee Hwee Boon has been appointed as the new chief of OCBC Bank’s human resources, replacing Jason Ho, who will retire on 23 June.

Currently, Lee is the head of OCBC Bank’s Enterprise Banking, middle market and services, global commercial banking. She will assume her new post on 24 June.

Lee has been with the bank since 1993, where she was a trainee bank officer.

In 2020, she started initiating the OCBC small and medium-sized sustainable finance framework, the first of its kind amongst Singapore banks.

The said framework was groundbreaking in allowing small firms to access green loans without complicated frameworks.

Meanwhile, Ho assumed his role for over seven years, where he introduced initiatives such as human resource mobile banking app which gives OCBC Bank employees easy access to human resource services and information in one platform.

He also ensured the safety and wellness of the  bank’s 30,000 employees, rolling out various COVID-19 care packages, new policies,  and guidelines.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
