We’ve never been ‘just a bank’. Just like you should never be ‘just an employee’. We’re united in our belief that in banking, better can be bigger, and together we’re making it happen.

It starts here. With Bendigo Bank… and you.

 

 

As Divisional Executive Manager you’ll have specific focus on connecting FAR Accountabilities with Divisional Leadership decisions and you’ll make an impact by:

  • providing timely and commercially pragmatic advice to the CRO and Group Risk Leadership team; drawing on technical knowledge and expertise to be considered a governance, risk and compliance professional and trusted adviser to the Accountable Person and their key direct reports as it relates to them meeting their accountabilities and reasonable step obligations.
  • oversight of governance processes and the provision of governance related advice.
  • acts as a key connector across the enterprise, breaking down silos across the material value chains and acting as a conduit for increasing speed of decisions and improving information flow.
