Banking jobs: the next steppe

Made redundant in the City? Down-sized in New York? Fed up in Frankfurt? The Golomt Bank of Mongolia has just the job for you.

According to an advertisement in Thursday’s FT , the bank is seeking “to further develop its corporate finance, retail banking and internal audit divisions and wishes to appoint experienced professionals”. Candidates need to be fluent in English, but not, it seems, in Mongolian, which should widen the pool somewhat.

Of course, you’ll have to move to Ulan Bator. But, after years of isolation, it’s now a boom town with international mining companies spraying around their money in one of the globe’s fastest-growing economies.

And friends from financial services may already be there – the London Stock Exchange earlier this year sent staff to the land of the Gobi desert to help run the Mongolian bourse.

Best of all, you get to avoid all those anti-banker jokes.
