Judo Bank announced changes to the Bank's Executive Team. These changes will support the Bank for its next phase of growth, creating the right organisational structure to support Judo's team, unique culture and the existing growth momentum. Chris Bayliss, currently Deputy CEO and Chief Financial Officer, has been appointed to the role of Deputy CEO and Chief Relationship Officer.

The appointment of Mr. Bayliss to this role recognises the importance of scaling Judo's unique customer value proposition to achieve the Bank's growth aspirations and vision of being a world-class SME business bank.

As a result of this change Angelo Manos has decided to leave Judo in order to pursue other career opportunities.
