  • Delivering exceptional customer outcomes through accurate, efficient application processing, proactive issue resolution and clear stakeholder communication
  • Maintaining high standards of quality, accuracy and compliance, ensuring all lending decisions align with regulatory requirements, responsible lending obligations and risk appetite
  • Effectively managing workflow and priorities to meet service standards, turnaround times and operational performance expectations across a range of lending activities

  • Identifying opportunities for continuous improvement by enhancing processes, supporting quality assurance activities and contributing to better customer, risk and business outcomes

About you:

You are an experienced lending or credit professional who enjoys balancing strong customer outcomes with sound risk management practices. With a keen eye for detail and the confidence to apply policy and judgement, you will thrive in a fast-pace environment where quality and consistency matter, to bring the best outcomes to our customers.

  • Strong knowledge of credit risk, as well as responsible lending and compliance requirements
  • Experience in retail lending and credit decisioning
  • Experience with third party and broker channels
  • Previous experience operating under a Delegated Lending Authority (DLA)
  • The ability to interpret and apply lending policies, procedures and decision frameworks
  • Strong analytical, organisational and decision-making skills, with high level of attention to detail
  • Excellent communication, coaching and relationship management skills

Why you’ll love working with us:

People First Bank – our new brand – says exactly what we’re all about: people. We're committed to supporting and growing our team and creating an outstanding work environment.

You’ll have access to financial and lifestyle benefits to support your success and individuality:

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
