• Lead a high-profile Professional Services portfolio focused on legal and insolvency clients 
• Shape strategy, deepen specialist relationships and grow a predominantly deposit-led portfolio 
• Act as an Industry & Banking POD leader and build your pathway towards senior leadership 

Our people are customer obsessed. They prioritise the needs and satisfaction of the customer above all else. Our mindset fosters innovation and creates strong, lasting customer relationships as we strive to be the most customer centric company in Australia and New Zealand. 

In the role of Client Director, Professional Services, you will lead a highly specialised portfolio of legal and insolvency customers, where deposits, transactional banking and liquidity solutions are central to customer value. Working closely with the Business Banking Executive, you will help shape and execute strategy, provide day-to-day leadership across the team and act as an alternate point of escalation. This is an influential opportunity to create meaningful change; role model an outstanding culture and build experience for a future senior leadership role. 

Each day, you’ll go above and beyond to: 

• Proactively manage and grow a portfolio of high-value legal and insolvency customers, delivering tailored deposit, transactional, liquidity and lending solutions. 
• Build trusted relationships with customers and referral partners, identify new business opportunities and represent Professional Services internally and externally. 
• Partner with the Business Banking Executive to shape and execute business strategy, drive collective scorecard outcomes and support the growth of the broader portfolio. 
• Provide day-to-day leadership, coaching and support to colleagues, while acting as an alternate escalation point for customers and internal stakeholders. 
• Use customer and industry insights to improve processes, remove complexity and create practical solutions that deliver better customer outcomes. 
• Maintain a strong focus on financial crime, operational and credit risk, portfolio quality and sustainable profitability. 

We’re looking for the brightest to deliver the best for our customers. You’ll need: 

• Seasoned business banking or relationship management experience supporting complex professional or commercial customers. 
• Experience within legal or insolvency banking would be highly regarded. If you have not worked directly in insolvency, you will bring strong experience across deposit and lending solutions for professional services customers. 
• Strong commercial acumen, credit capability and knowledge of transactional banking, deposits and liquidity management solutions. 
• A solutions-focused and customer-obsessed mindset, with the influence, judgement and credibility to lead through others, build followership and role model a strong team culture. 
• Strong business development expertise and the ability to identify, originate and convert new opportunities.
• Demonstrated success building and deepening executive-level client relationships.
