“As a Regional Manager for The National Bank I have the autonomy to run a large business, while also being able to draw upon the knowledge from more than 15 specialist areas, including People Capital (HR), Strategy, Economics and Marketing. My role allows me to set the direction for my team, work with management on various programmes and initiatives, and best of all be part of a business that puts people first.

My career commenced as a school leaver, with little understanding of what it was I really wanted to do. Twenty years on and it is fair to say that my direction is a lot clearer, although definitely not limited to any specified area or particular job. Over my career to date I have had 14 different job roles, with the last four being leadership positions.

One of the many personal development areas provided for staff is study. Being supported both financially and personally to complete an MBA was, without doubt, a career defining point for me.

Being part of such a diverse company means that opportunities are not always what you had in mind, like the time I applied for a role in Auckland and ended up taking a role with Business Banking in Christchurch…although I'm still unsure how I was convinced to leave that wonderful location!

Whether you’re looking for a position dealing in Customer Service, Sales, Relationship Management, Leadership, Processing, or one of the many specialist areas,
The National Bank has a fantastic range of career opportunities available. In addition to that, we offer some of the best staff benefits that you would find anywhere.

I highly recommend that you take a look at The National Bank.”
