Position description: Senior-Agribusiness-Relationship-Manager--Jun23.pdf

Rural Bank is proudly part of the Bendigo and Adelaide Bank group, offering a specialist value proposition to Australian farmers. We have a deep understanding of Agriculture and how to assist our customers in securing their financial needs to grow their business. Setting the standard for banking and giving financial power back to our communities, Bendigo and Adelaide Bank was recently ranked in the top three most trusted brands in Australia. So, come and work for a Bank you can be proud of.

You are deeply customer centric, have a curious mindset and like to ask questions, learn and grow personally and professionally. You enjoy networking and building relationships in the community that you’re serving.

Your background in commerce, finance or banking, including lending, credit or deposit areas will give you the right grounding, and your understanding of agriculture and farming will see you thrive in this role. Experience working as a banking relationship manager in agribusiness or similar is essential.

As a Senior Agribusiness Relationship Manager, you’ll get to :

• Support a portfolio of customers across Townsville & North QLD
• Identify ways to appropriately assist customers to access finance to grow their business and in turn their communities and regional wealth.
• Prepare concise, accurate and timely loan proposals and reviews whilst ensuring the quality of credit assessment and ongoing management is maintained.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with Key Business Influencers by proactively networking and developing new relationship with potential future customers.
• Increase market share in target markets and identify opportunities for deepening customer relationships and referring opportunities to our partners.

This is a full time, permanent position. We offer flexible work options that put our people first, and a hybrid model based out of Townsville, but you will regularly travel by vehicle to visit customers on farm and attend field days and networking events. Given you will travel over 15,000kms/pa this role qualifies for a company provided vehicle/allowance and a clean driver’s license is a must.

We believe a diverse workforce supported by an inclusive culture is central to our success and we actively encourage applications from those who bring diversity of thought to our business. We support candidate requests for adjustment to accommodate an illness, injury, or disability to equitably participate in the selection process.
