Here at BNZ, it's about more than just banking. We work together in an agile, energising environment to create innovative solutions through our promise "If you can imagine a better future, let's find a way."
We support wellbeing, flexible working and have a generous leave offering. There is the opportunity for growth, learning and career development. No two days are the same.
Ko mātou tēnei | This is Us
At BNZ we are committed to being the Bank for New Zealand. That means we are focusing on our customers, continually improving the way we do business, and providing great leadership.
Mō te Tūranga | About the Role
We have an excellent opportunity for an experienced Commercial banking professional to progress their career in an equally challenging yet exciting role, based in Newmarket. This role will give you the opportunity to support some of our largest customers to achieve their goals!
We spoke with our Senior Partner who let us know the following about the role:
What does a day in the life of a Commercial Partner look like?
No day is the same and it's this variety is what makes the role so exciting. A typical day might entail;
In the morning you're out on-site with one of your customers reviewing their annual business plan and understand their funding needs for the year ahead.
Over lunch you have your Business Development hat on - attending an industry event or meeting a new potential customer
During the afternoon you're back in the office analysing financials and the information you have gathered to structure lending assessments.
Any way you have it, you'll learn and grow, and get to work with a range of industry leading BNZ specialists to ensure the delivery of appropriate products and services to meet our customers' requirements.
What is the team culture and environment like?
You will be joining a highly driven and collaborative team, allowing you to share knowledge, learn from others and continually grow and develop.
Most importantly, we're looking for someone who's motivated to help put their stamp on our culture and challenge us to lift the bar.
This role is a great mix of working independently and coming together as a team to deliver for our clients.
What is the most exciting thing about this opportunity?
It is a sought after, diverse role with plenty of scope for professional development! Your empowerment to be the decision maker is market leading, which allows you to swiftly execute on transactions and deliver a first-class customer experience.
What is the most challenging thing about this opportunity?
We need to find someone who is motivated by connecting with new opportunities - not afraid to put themselves out there, pick up the phone or jump in the car to see how we can help. Our clients and prospective clients expect us to add value to them and what they do - we must make every interaction count.
The successful candidate also needs to be able to be seen as a "trusted advisor" and build confidence by demonstrating their ability to work effectively through the detailed and nuanced funding requirements for customers.
What attributes will this person have in order to be successful?
We are looking for a supremely self-motivated, ambitious team player who has a growth mindset and desire to contribute to the performance of our region.
Ideally, you will also have a high level of commercial banking acumen including financial and cashflow analysis, and either an already established professional network in the region or proven ability to grow a network to help serve our customers brilliantly!
For internal reference, this role is Hay 17
