  • Strong industrial relations background is desirable
  • Previous experience in a regulated, financial, or legal setting is preferred
  • Knowledge of relevant workplace laws, regulations, and enterprise bargaining
  • Ability to engage in all aspects of the role, including detailed work
  • Effective communication skills with stakeholders at all levels
  • Excellent written and verbal communication abilities

Your Team:

You will be part of a specialized team contributing significantly to the Bank's operations. Led by two Heads of Employee Relations, you will receive strategic guidance and support as needed.

You will also collaborate with a dynamic Human Resources team, a group of experts working towards the best outcomes for the Bank.

Embrace Growth

Joining an organization that truly impacts the Australian community, we provide developmental opportunities in a supportive and flexible environment. Your personal growth propels the Bank's progress. Embracing growth empowers you to achieve more, for yourself and for Australia.

Comprising professionals from diverse fields, our team plays a crucial role in achieving these objectives. As a values-driven organization, we uphold integrity and strive for excellence. We endorse critical thinking and mutual respect while serving the public interest through our work.
