As Australia's leading customer-owned banking group, we're passionate about a brighter future for our members and the communities we serve. We are now seeking an exceptional legal leader to step into the newly created role of Head of Legal – Corporate.

You operate comfortably in complex, fast-paced environments and are known for delivering pragmatic, solutions-focused advice that supports business outcomes while upholding integrity and compliance. Your approach is grounded in strong values, and you lead with confidence, clarity, and purpose. In addition, you will also bring:
- 12 years' post-qualification experience in banking, finance or financial services, gained within top-tier law firms and/or senior in-house legal roles.
