Wib Credit Officer, Level 2

**Create your best future and join Westpac as a WIB Senior Credit Officer - WIB Credit Risk.**

**What’s the role?**

You’ll step into a pivotal role at the heart of Westpac Institutional Bank, where your credit expertise will shape the future of some of Australia’s most significant corporate relationships. Based in Sydney or Melbourne and working full-time, you’ll lead the credit risk assessment and portfolio management for high-value institutional clients. You’ll collaborate closely with teams across Trade, Asset and Acquisition Finance, and Customer Coverage to drive strategic outcomes.

This isn’t just about approvals—it’s about influence, foresight, and building a resilient credit culture that supports growth, innovation, and long-term value. You’ll also have the flexibility to broaden your impact across other portfolios as needed.

**What do I need?**

We’re looking for a strategic thinker with a strong credit backbone and a collaborative mindset. Here’s what will set you up for success:

- **Strategic credit judgment**- You’ve got a proven ability to assess complex credit scenarios, identify early warning signs, and implement proactive remediation strategies that protect and grow the bank’s position.
- **Institutional banking experience**- You bring deep experience (ideally 10+ years) in corporate credit within an institutional lending environment, with a strong grasp of risk-return dynamics and market context.
- **Delegated authority and leadership**- You’ve held credit approval authority before, or you’re ready to step into it, with the confidence to make high-impact decisions and the wisdom to know when to challenge or support.
- **Product and sector insight**- You understand the nuances of Property and Acquisition Finance and can navigate legal documentation like term sheets and ISDAs with ease.
- **Influence and collaboration**- You’re a natural communicator who builds trust, negotiates effectively, and partners across teams to deliver commercial outcomes aligned with risk appetite.

**Why join us?**

We’re obsessed with becoming our customers #1 banking partner for life and we’re looking for people who are passionate about helping us achieve that goal. In return we’re committed to making Westpac the best place to work in the country. Here are just a few of the ways we’re already doing that:

- Special offers on banking products and discounts from top brands, including generous employee-only mortgage rates
- Flexible work arrangements to help you achieve a greater work/life balance, and a variety of leave options including Culture, Lifestyle and Wellbeing leave.
- Tailored learning and development opportunities to help your grow your career within the bank.
- Lots of opportunities to ‘give back’ to the Community by getting involved in our many volunteering initiatives
- Take ownership of your own customer portfolio while gaining exposure across the wider Property and Corporate Credit team. You'll be supported to flexibly collaborate across teams, deepening your expertise and expanding your professional skillset.
