About the role

At ANZ our purpose is to shape a world where people and communities thrive. We're making this happen by constantly looking for ways to improve our customers' financial wellbeing so they can achieve incredible things - be it buying their home, building a business, or saving for things big or small.

The Product Area Lead will work closely with the Tech Area Lead and Security Advisory & Engineering (SA&E) Leadership Team to deliver the Secure Design & Run services in a simple, secure and cost-effective way.

You are responsible for driving the Secure Design & Run Services strategic vision and roadmap.

The Product Area Lead also ensures that the work is strategically aligned to the SA&E mission and engages with the SA&E Leadership Team and other Product Owners to align and manage interdependencies. It is a key leadership role, galvanising the squads around a vision and supporting them to successfully deliver customer value at pace.

As a Product Area Lead, you will bring domain knowledge or deep security expertise on a specific mastery or craft and develop this expertise across your specialist Chapter groups. Capability Area Leads are about the 'how' and span across similar specialist Chapters within the Domain with a focus on ensuring the right capability is delivered to achieve SA&E outcomes.
