• We are leading the world in AI ambition within Australia’s largest bank and fintech!
• Together, we will engineer the future of banking with innovative Gen AI solutions!

Do work that matters

As we continue our pursuit of NPS +30 we need to transform the way we engage with our customers and colleagues.  The Gen AI Domain has been set up to build the tools and capabilities needed within the group tapping into the promise of Generative AI as a key technology to solve those needs.

This domain will power the creation of Generative AI solutions that will support more personalised experiences for our customers and our people. We must bring a customer first mindset into every decision; every day, whilst taking a holistic change management approach to drive organisational adoption.

We will enable the broader group to leverage broad Generative AI capabilities through building domain owned platforms and frameworks for use across the bank, such as the Gen.AI Hub.
