Field takes on the combined role of executive director of origination and portfolio management with the task of improving client service. ôWe are on track for significant volume growth this year and we took this opportunity to combine the origination and portfolio management teams of EFIC to improve EFICÆs client service and risk management,ö says the agencyÆs managing director, Angus Armour.

Field was previously head of global banking at Deutsche Bank in Sydney and has also held a number of roles with Westpac and Lloyds Bank in Sydney, London and Hong Kong.
