Westpac plans to chop 200 jobs

“Westpac is a significant Australian employer, with greater than 30,000 folks throughout the nation. Within the final 12 months we employed virtually 5,000 folks in Australia,” the spokesperson stated. “Whereas we proceed to spend money on additional bankers, different areas may have fewer assets. This implies occasionally we make adjustments which will impression some roles and duties as we actively handle prices and funding. As the talents and capabilities required in banking proceed to evolve, so will our workforce. We attempt to hold as many workers within the Westpac Group as we will, by way of retraining and redeployment.”
