Human Resources
“Attract, retain and train right kind of people for WestLB.”
Managing our people is crucial to the Bank’s success, and Human Resources (HR) is responsible for every aspect of a person’s employment during their time with the Bank.
The department is divided into three areas:
- Compensation and Benefits which is responsible for devising and managing the Bank’s compensation structure, administering payroll and managing data and information reporting requirements.
- HR Relationship Managers who support business areas in all their day-to-day employer-employee matters. Their responsibilities include attracting, recruiting and retaining staff, providing confidential career advice and providing a proactive advisory service to managers and employees. They also develop best practice HR policies and procedures to ensure the Bank continues to be a leading-edge employer. Furthermore, they partner with Business Units on strategic projects to further improve our business performance.
- Learning & Development supports the Bank in achieving its business objectives by ensuring employees have the right knowledge, behaviours and skills necessary to perform to the best of their ability and deliver the required business results. They are also responsible for working closely with business leaders on the type of environment and culture that is required to deliver business results. This involves facilitating people’s development in the leadership and management arena as well as other professional and product knowledge and skills. This team also looks after intern and graduate recruitment.
