2025 Risk Graduate Program (Feb 2025)

Get to where you need to be. Sooner

ANZ’s award-winning graduate program is designed to fast-track the career you have been working so hard towards. All grads are hand-picked to fill a specific opening within the business so are in the driver’s seat from day one. And when you cross the finishing line 18 months later there will be a job waiting in an area of your choice. Along with a generous boost to your already healthy starting salary.

Things move fast at ANZ as we’re doing the important work that only one of Australia’s biggest banks with a global network can tackle. It won’t take you long to realise you’re with good people who are all working towards a common goal. You will be too, but don’t worry - you won’t be expected to have all the answers up front.

Instead, six monthly rotations will open your eyes to what’s possible at ANZ and what’s the best path for you to take. The time you spend on the program will be jam packed with learning and networking opportunities to set you up with the contacts, confidence, and expertise to turbo charge your career.

So don’t delay, because our plans are big - and we want you up front with us!

We have program pathways in a range of our divisions including Risk.

About the Risk Program

As a Risk Grad, you’ll gain breadth over depth by completing three, six month rotations, giving you exposure to different teams across the Risk Division.

Risk is a critical function for ANZ, with highly valued and innovative teams that enable the Enterprise to deliver its purpose – to create a world where people and communities thrive. This means you’ll  be involved in stimulating and rewarding work and discover a people first, collaborative, values driven culture.

• Gain valuable, hands-on experience working with (and learning from!) industry leading professionals across various areas of risk management including credit risk, market risk, financial crime, and regulatory compliance.
• Regular networking opportunities (often including coffee) and plenty of social activities will help you grow a strong professional network 
• Find solutions to a real problem, by taking ownership of  a graduate project!  Delivery is supported by a project sponsor and project coach 
• Be empowered to grow, learn and progress in a supportive environment, where your strengths, interests and career aspirations are valued.
• You’ll also be able to hone your collaborative skills, while working across different teams and  geographies, as the Risk Division has a global footprint and supports all aspects of ANZ operations
