Standard Bank appoints new Client Coverage Manager

Standard Bank recently appointed Oshoveli Munashimue as their new Client Coverage Manager within the Corporate and Investment Banking Department.

Munashimue joined Standard Bank on 3 January and will be responsible for developing and maintaining strong relationships between Standard Bank and its corporate clients in the public sector.

“I'm excited about the opportunity to apply the relationship management skills I've acquired in the NGO sector to corporate banking, and at the same time looking forward to the challenge of learning a whole new set of skills,” Munashimue said of her appointment.

Munashimue graduated with a BA in Law, History and Politics from the University of Cape Town in 2001.

She most recently worked as a Development and Operations Manager for Taxpayers for Common Sense, a US federal budget watchdog based in DC, building the organisation's donor base and coordinating all development operations.

As an external Relations Associate at WITNESS, a human rights organisation in New York City, she was tasked with the management of the organisation's relationships with institutional grant makers. At UNOPS, an operational arm of the UN, also based in New York City, she was charged with the overall administration of the recruitment and selection process for the 2006 transition of UNOPS headquarters to Copenhagen, Denmark.

Munashimue believes this experience illustrates she's well equipped to take up her new role as a relationship manager.
