Job Description

Create your best future and join Westpac as an Executive Assistant - Non-Financial Risk

What’s the role?

As an Executive Assistant supporting a General Manager in Non-Financial Risk, you’ll be right at the centre of a highly visible and fast‑paced function. You’ll be trusted to manage complex diaries and inboxes, coordinate high-stakes meetings and ensure your leader is prepared for engagements with senior executives, regulators and Board members.

With frequent competing priorities, you’ll bring order to a constantly shifting schedule, anticipating needs and thinking several steps ahead. You’ll coordinate leadership team meetings, prepare agendas and papers, manage confidential information with care and act as a key connection point across the business.

You’ll also support events, travel and expenses, respond quickly to stakeholder requests and keep systems and documentation up to date. This is a fulltime role based in Sydney, with an expectation you’ll work 3 to 4 days per week in the office, supporting strong connection and collaboration.

What do I need?

To thrive in this role, you’ll bring a strong sense of initiative, attention to detail, and the ability to manage multiple priorities with professionalism and confidence.

Here’s what will help you succeed:

  • Proven experience in a senior administrative or executive support role, maintaining strict confidentiality, within financial services or investment banking.
  • Strong organisational and time management skills, with the ability to manage competing priorities and deadlines.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with a high level of professionalism and discretion.
  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite (Word, PowerPoint, Excel) and confidence navigating internal systems.
  • A proactive, solutions-focused mindset and the ability to build strong working relationships across all levels of the organisation.

Why join us?

We’re obsessed with becoming our customers' #1 banking partner for life and we’re looking for people who are passionate about helping us achieve that goal. In return, we’re committed to making Westpac the best place to work in the country. Here are just a few of the ways we’re already doing that:

  • Special offers on banking products and discounts from top brands, including generous employee-only mortgage rates!
  • Flexible work arrangements to help you achieve a greater work/life balance, and a variety of leave options including Culture, Lifestyle and Wellbeing leave.
  • Tailored learning and development opportunities to help your grow your career within the bank.
  • Lots of opportunities to ‘give back’ to the Community by getting involved in our many volunteering initiatives.
