A strong graduate cohort

As a grad, one of the best parts of the program is the support you’ll receive. You'll build valuable networks and make new friends - many of whom you'll work with in the years to come.

Our graduates run their own Graduate Committee which provides social gatherings, networking events and opportunities for community liaison and volunteering. Our graduates are encouraged to give back to their local communities and play a role in leading and driving change.

A culture of diversity and inclusivity

Our customers come from all walks of life and so do we. Build your career with an organisation that celebrates and thrives on the differences in our people. We promote an inclusive culture that supports every employee at every stage of their lives and career. We embrace diversity of thought and background, recognising our people for who they are and the value they bring.

So regardless of your gender, your age, or your background, there's room for you to realise your potential here. And importantly, there's room to be yourself. Find out more about our diversity and inclusion initiatives.

A community minded organisation

It feels good to be part of an organisation that cares about its community. We're committed to doing the right thing and at heart of our approach is to make a positive and sustainable impact on the lives of our customers, colleagues, shareholders, communities, and on the environment in which we operate. We leverage our skills as a bank to manage environmental, social and governance risks to create business innovation and opportunities that matter.

Our social impact agenda is seen in all parts of our organisation and as a graduate you’ll have the opportunity to be involved.

What we’re looking for in a graduate

At NAB, we work together to deliver exceptional outcomes that push the limits of expectations. Our passion about making a difference to our community, creating value and exceeding our customers' expectations means we're constantly striving to redefine our standards of excellence.

We have a passion for serving our customers, curiosity to learn, respect for people, and we do what’s right, even when it’s hard. We're looking for graduates who feel the same way - people who look for opportunities to find better and simpler ways of doing things.

Customer needs are changing and the way they engage with us is too. We’re looking for graduates to join us on this transformation. Graduates who have digital capabilities, can approach problems with a different perspective, demonstrate agility and work with data to actionable insights.

We’re interested in graduates with diverse experience, from diverse backgrounds and diverse fields of study. We’re not just looking for high academic achievers, we’re looking for people with life experience who put themselves in our customer’s shoes and are passionate about building a career at NAB.
