**How will I help?**

The Head of Data Platforms, Credit Risk will serve several critical internal clients, including the business units of Credit Risk, Business & Wealth, the Institutional Bank, and the Group’s regulatory reporting teams. Your team of approximately 100 colleagues sits within the Data Platforms Group Business Unit (GBU) division which comprises four delivery departments: Credit Risk; Financial Crime; Finance and Regulatory; and Corporate Services and Enterprise Risk.

An influential data leader, you will play a crucial role designing, building, and implementing data solutions for the department that works to protect the customers and community we serve.

- Work with Chief Engineer, GBU Chief Information officer (CIO) and business partners to champion the transformation and execution strategy of our legacy credit risk platform.
- Deliver data services and projects for Credit Risk including data products, insights, and reporting for regulatory and business purposes. Be a change agent, assisting Westpac’s data revolution to uplift data maturity across all the business units you work with, and refocus the respective department’s delivery model to drive customer insights through various data technologies.

**What’s in it for me?**

You’ll play a significant part of the future of a business that has been around for 200 years. Our purpose is of creating better futures together. So, we’ll back you in the development of your career, internal career prospects, and flexible working.

Whatever shape your family takes, we offer generous paid and unpaid parental leave for your nominated primary and support carers. This includes leave to organise adoptions, surrogacy, and foster care arrangements.

**What do I need?**
- Advanced knowledge of modern data and integration technologies, data warehousing and cloud computing
- Senior and successful client stakeholder management (General Manager level)
- Client centricity; demonstrated understanding of the inter-relationship between IT and the business client
- Demonstrated experience leading large Agile teams, including external partners, that execute end-to-end programs and support mission-critical activities.
- Highly developed leadership and communication skills
- Driven to deliver - proven ability to deliver the best possible results for the organisation; and demonstrates determination, resourcefulness, and a sense of purpose and urgency in achieving outcomes - Strong negotiation and influencing skills to drive discussions towards effective outcomes
