We have a clear strategy and important work in place to become Australia's bank of choice.
Our values of teamwork, integrity, performance, engagement, leadership and passion are at the core of who we are and form the expectation of the behaviours we adopt every day.
About the Team and Role
The Agri Asset Management Unit actively engages with our agri customers experiencing financial difficulty with the intention of identifying an acceptable solution and strengthening our long-term relationship, whilst being prepared to act decisively where necessary to safeguard customer and shareholder interests.
Our priorities are to provide our customers with every reasonable opportunity to preserve their loan, their equity and any underlying security; and to minimise and mitigate customer and Bank shareholder loss.
The key focus of Manager Asset Management involves direct management of workout scenarios that require intensive management where the aim is to deliver a commercially viable outcome that does not expose the Bank to unacceptable levels of risk. You will be expected to assume direct relationship responsibility for a mix of complex and noncomplex files.
