About the program

Customer preferences are shifting to digital channels and Bankwest's Technology team plays a critical role in delivering the brilliant solutions and experiences that make our customers’ lives easier.

Our Technology team is responsible for simplifying and modernising Bankwest’s technology environment. We do this by designing and delivering market leading technology solutions, and as part of the CommBank Group we have access to world leading technology — from innovative product platforms for our customers, to essential tools within our business. Right now, we’re increasing our adoption of mobile, cloud, automation, analytics, data science, virtualisation, and API-enabled systems – this is your chance to be part of WA’s largest employers of tech-educated professionals and help shape the future of Bankwest Technology and the Group.

As a graduate, you’re not a number or ‘just’ a coder, we’ll give you incredibly broad and exciting opportunities to deepen and grow your capabilities by working on real stuff and delivering real value for the business from day one – delivering solutions, reinvigorating existing technologies and creating new ones. Our structured Program includes rotations across a wide range of cross-functional delivery teams to develop your skills and set you up for career success.

We have a modern workplace setting, breakout, collaboration and kitchen areas to catch up with colleagues, an active social network, team building, volunteering and diversity and inclusion activities, colleague events and training to learn and have fun, and even monthly competitions. We truly value your thoughts and empower you to see them through your day-to-day work and community-based programs.

Bankwest is made by us. All people. People who are driven, but kind. Opinionated, but listen. People who take as much care with their work as they do with each other. People who are different, who have travelled, who have stayed in the one place. Extroverted people, introverted people and people who don’t really know what kind of person they are. People with different backgrounds, genders, orientations, races, and stories to tell. Because Bankwest is made by us and it takes all kinds of people to make Bankwest the best place to work in Australia.

This is your opportunity to kick start your career in an agile technology environment that is fast-paced, diverse and highly collaborative, where you’ll be supported by colleagues and leaders from all technology principles who genuinely care about you and your development.

Program structure

Our structured Graduate Program starts in February and runs for up to two years.

The Program includes rotations across a wide range of cross-functional delivery teams to develop your skills and set you up for career success. These rotations will be tailored to your personal career goals and maximise your opportunity for growth.

From day one, you’ll be doing real work that adds value to our customers while receiving both technical and foundational-skills training.

At the end of the Program, we'll work with you to understand your career goals and determine your strengths to position you in a role that best suits you and the business.

Location

We have roles available in the Bankwest head office located in the centre of Perth.

We offer unparalleled flexible working arrangements to accommodate your lifestyle. And we'll give you top of the range collaboration tools to keep you connected.

Application process

We try to make the process as simple and easy as possible. It starts with an online application and progresses to online assessments, digital interviews, and face-to-face meetings with members of our team.

What it takes

Our structured Graduate Program starts in February and runs for two years.

This program is best suited to people with relevant university or TAFE qualifications and an interest in technology.

To apply, you must have an Australian or New Zealand citizenship or permanent residency at the time you submit your application.

  • We’re after hard workers with vision. We’re not chasing the ‘sit in the basement’ types; this is a creative, challenging, interesting environment where we’re dealing with sweeping technological change.
  • We’re looking for adaptive problem-solvers who want to be part of something big, and who can help to further strengthen the culture of one of WA’s most established, but eager-for-change, financial institutions.
  • Skills can be taught but at Bankwest we seek out people with strong values, empathy, good communications skills and who support diversity.

If this is you, join us at Bankwest Technology.

You must:

  • be an Australian or New Zealand citizen, or an Australian permanent resident at the time of application
  • be in your final year of studies, or have graduated within 24 months of applying
  • have maintained an overall credit average (65 GPA or WAM) during your university degree. If applying for Bankwest, TAFE diplomas are also accepted.
