Digital-first universal bank modernizing operations across Philippines
UnionBank is a 5,000+ person public bank replatforming core infrastructure: adopting RPA, SAP S/4HANA, and SAP Fiori while maintaining a legacy banking stack (Avaloq, Oracle SQL, Informatica). Hiring velocity is accelerating across ops and finance (184 roles combined), with security and data talent (47 roles) suggesting investment in compliance automation and risk modeling. The ECL and 6 Sigma projects, paired with stated pain points around regulation compliance and cost efficiency, indicate a bank in operational transformation rather than pure digital-first startup mode.
Notable leadership hires: Risk Head, Reliability Head, Marketing Head, Technical Lead, Credit Underwriting Head
