What's the role?

Join Westpac's Model Risk team as a manager focused on Enterprise models.

We're looking for someone who brings:

  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to clearly explain complex concepts and influence non-technical and senior stakeholders
  • Proven ability to work independently, manage competing priorities, and deliver high-quality outcomes with minimal supervision
  • Strong stakeholder management and relationship-building skills, with a collaborative and constructive approach to challenge
  • Experience mentoring junior team members and contributing to the uplift of model risk practices, including interest in AI model validation

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:
