It starts here. With Bendigo Bank… and you.

• Previous experience in a payroll position, ideally from within a large scale complex environment
• Experience with CIA/Ci and TechOne software or SAP highly regarded but not essential

• Excellent organisational and time management skills, and the ability to set work priorities to meet deadlines

• Strong written and verbal communication skills 
• Demonstrated ability to work collaboratively building positive working relationships with team members and key client stakeholders
