Meet our Indigenous Careers team

"CommBank gave me the opportunity to align both my passion for Indigenous employment with my professional skills. As Business Engagement Manager, I’m responsible for educating our business stakeholders and hiring managers to help increase Indigenous access to employment opportunities across the Group.

I still pinch myself that I actually get paid to give back to the community. As a team we work really hard to build confidence in Mob applying for CommBank roles and to feel supported and nurtured on their employment journey. In line with this we’re also playing a key role working with non-Indigenous ally’s on the importance of investing in Indigenous Careers to create a sustainable future together.  I’m a bit of an energiser bunny and take any opportunity to have a yarn, meet new people and share my experiences. Outside of work I find happiness doing volunteer work to support Indigenous youth develop job skills." - Kathleen, a proud Yuin woman

As an Indigenous Talent Sourcer for Commbank within the Indigenous Community Experience team, I am deeply committed to helping Mob find meaningful careers that not only match their skills but also align with their cultural values. Walking in two worlds, I take immense pride in assisting our community, ensuring that our voices are heard within one of Australia’s largest corporate organisations. The most rewarding part of my role is yarning with Mob from all corners of the country, building connections and advocating for what truly matters to our people. I am honoured to contribute to a future where Indigenous talent is prioritised, uplifted, and empowered within the corporate space. We have some really deadly talent across the country, and I love making these connections and seeing Mob secure amazing career’s and following their career journey’s within CommBank.  My career journey at CommBank has been in progress for six years now, and I started my career by supporting customers in the branch. I then transitioned into the Customer Contact Center, specifically in the Financial Hardship space, where I gained valuable leadership experience. Following that, I moved into the Indigenous Community Experience team. I am incredibly grateful for the opportunities I have been presented with at CommBank. - Jordan - A proud Wiradjuri, Ngiyampaa woman

I am glad I made the decision to work for CommBank because of the opportunities it has given me.

I was able to be a part of the First Nations Outreach Program travelling to the Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara (APY) Lands, obtain a Certificate IV in Business and Leadership and move into different roles that interested me. I worked in the Indigenous Customer Assistance Line assisting mob in remote communities, Financial Crime as a Transaction Monitoring Analyst and I have recently stepped into the Indigenous Careers Team as a Talent Sourcing Partner. I look forward to this next chapter striving towards creating meaningful opportunities and provide support for mob throughout their job application process - Danielle, a proud Yuin woman

“I’m passionate about helping Mob find jobs they love, and my role with Indigenous Careers as a Sourcing Partner is to connect communities with meaningful careers in banking. Being part of the CommBank Indigenous Careers team means we can make a big impact with both First Nations and non-First Nations peoples. We’re doing this through employment and development pathways for Mob, and supporting our non-First Nations people to build greater understanding of our culture. To me, this all goes towards the bigger picture of reconciliation for us as Australians.” - Trent, a proud Gomeroi man
