SMBC is an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to fostering a diversified and inclusive workplace and removing barriers to provide equal access to employment.

Note on Mandatory Reference Check ("MRC") Scheme:

The MRC Scheme seeks to address the "rolling bad apples" phenomenon in the banking sector in Hong Kong, i.e. situations where individuals who engage in misconduct during their employment in one institution are able to obtain subsequent employment in another institution without disclosing their misconduct to the new employer. Against this background, the HKMA proposed a framework to facilitate Authorized Institutions ("AIs") to bilaterally obtain reference information during their recruitment process for certain positions, such that misconduct information in an individual's previous employments can be provided to AIs to inform their employment decisions.

For in-scope positions, satisfactory completion of MRC process is pivotal for the consideration of employment decision. For details, you may visit HKMA's website and refer to the latest FAQs issued by HKAB. Further details will be shared on request if your application is being proceeded.

Application details will be used only for recruitment purposes, and will be destroyed after 1 year. Applicants not contacted after 6 weeks may consider their applications unsuccessful.
