Job description

Customer Service Officer | Community Bank Elwood | VIC

It starts here. With Bendigo Bank… and you.

We've never been ‘just a bank'. Just like you should never be ‘just an employee'. We're united in our belief that in banking, better can be bigger, and together we're making it happen.

Your role as a Customer Service Officer puts you in the driver's seat of our service delivery, giving you the autonomy to do what you do best - helping customers achieve their banking goals.

Whether you're assisting customers with transactions, educating them about our online platforms or recommending products and services that best suit their needs, you'll value how it feels to make a difference in people's lives.

In this dynamic and high-impact role, you'll make your mark by:

• Exploring customers' needs through in-depth conversations to help them achieve their financial goals and partnering with different specialists within the branch.
• Keeping up with constant change. You'll support our customers with their digital literacy and online banking needs as we continue to innovate our offerings.
• Being the face of the branch and customer service. Become our customer's go-to person for anything from processing transactions, handling cash, investigating queries or assisting with paperwork, all while keeping risk considerations at the forefront.
• Embracing an attitude of lifelong learning. Bring your brilliant mind, and we'll help you take your career to the next level with on-the-job training and external development opportunities.
• Building connections. A role at Bendigo Bank means supporting our customers, giving back and making our communities a better place… while having some fun along the way!

There are 2 permanent, full-time position located in Elwood.

What you'll bring to the role

To succeed in this role, you'll consistently deliver exceptional customer service. We'd love you to have:

• Experience in customer service environment and the ability to achieve targets
• Strong attention to detail to ensure secure, accurate transactions with a risk mindset
• Confidence to communicate with new and existing customers face to face and over the phone
• Eagerness to understand and communicate what makes our bank different
• Drive for collaboration - mateship is crucial for us to work together and achieve our goals
• Experience in the banking and finance industry is a plus but certainly not essential
