New boss at BNZ private bank

BNZ has confirmed its new head of private bank.

Monday, December 16th 2019, 8:16PM

Charlotte Noble-Beasley has been promoted into the role, replacing Donna Nicolof.

The bank said she had more than 20 years’ experience in banking.

Before taking the private bank role, Noble-Beasley was managing partner in Wellington and senior partner in BNZ’s corporate and commercial team.

“Her wealth of experience and expertise combined with a clear passion for great customer outcomes will be invaluable as we look to grow our private bank business.”

Charlie holds a Bachelor of Arts from Victoria University. Outside of work, she's a keen runner, who enjoys skiing, mountain biking and paddle boarding with her family.

Nicolof said in August she had decided it was time to move on.

"To be the most awarded private bank in New Zealand and recognised as the best in the market for five consecutive years is quite an achievement and certainly not one that happens without the commitment and dedication of a wonderful team, from whom I get inspiration every day.

"It's been a privilege to lead this business and I'm so proud of the culture we have created, the impact we have had in market and the difference we have made to our valued clients and their families. Announcing this to our team yesterday has actually been quite emotional for me and I'm humbled by the response from people right across the business. As a leader, I've never really cared for recognition from above, I've always been motivated by doing what I believe is right, working hard and treating people with respect, so the response has been quite overwhelming. I guess we all hope we get it more right than wrong and listen to what we can do better next time."
