Investment bank UBS has announced the appointment of Michael Willi to the position of chief communications officer.

He succeeds Tom Hill, who will report to the chief financial officer in his new capacity as the leader of Group Strategic Advisory and Financial Communications.

Willi becomes responsible for the firm’s corporate and brand communications, and will report directly to the Group’s chief executive officer.

In taking on his new post, he assumes leadership of Communications Management, Media Relations, Internal Communications and Brand Management.

However, financial communications becomes part of the duties assigned to the group’s chief financial officer.
