Allan Wallace can't help but be a little obsessed with the ANZ Gothic Banking Museum! But can you blame him? It's an iconic Melbourne landmark, featuring stunning architectural elements, along with rich historical significance.    His role as concierge involves educating visitors and promoting the Museum’s unique history. With tours now thriving, especially after reaching an impressive 400,000 views on Google, Allan’s in-depth knowledge of the building and its history is in high demand.    “It’s just such a privilege to be here each day. I love promoting the space. It’s phenomenal having meaningful and unique interactions with visitors,” says Allan.    “Just today I hosted two sets of tourists from the UK who had travelled extensively throughout Europe. They were enthralled with the beauty of the bank and said even after viewing many locations across Europe that this was a favourite as it’s got such a special feeling.”    Discover more about the history of the Gothic Bank here: https://lnkd.in/gEYPMPGa

"Everyone fails all the time, everyone feels like an imposter. It's failure that teaches you, not success."    That's what Alice Callaghan, our Marketing Strategy & Proposition Manager, has to say to other marketers trying to overcome imposter syndrome as they grow their careers. By bringing the customer lens to strategy and priorities, her innovation and passion led her to win the 2024 Australian Marketing Institute Emerging Marketer of the Year Award.     Alice is involved with our Marketing Masters Program, endorsed by the Australian Marketing Institute, which won Campaign Asia-Pacific’s Best Place to Work award for Best Learning and Development.    "Being able to grow and develop is only possible if you have support from your broader business and I've been lucky enough to receive that from the wider Marketing team. Our managers are so good at focusing on skill development and growth."    Alice’s biggest piece of advice for marketers aiming to advance their careers is to ‘lean in and follow up with yourself.’ This means actively engaging with new ideas and resources. Whether it’s a person to follow, a podcast, a book, or a show, make a note of it and ensure you follow through.

It took a huge amount of collaboration right across ANZ to prepare and deliver our full year #results announcement for 2024.    Thanks to Rob Lay, Shelley Xie, Zai Ming Phoon, Vivienne Lee, Shayne Elliott and our Executive Committee for letting us spend some time behind the scenes with you, to get an insight into how our results get brought to life.    Watch it here 👇📽

Today we published our full-year results for the twelve months to 30 September 2024.   ANZ CEO Shayne Elliott said, “Today we reported a strong full-year result with the second-highest revenue performance ever, helping deliver a total return of 27% for shareholders.”   This has been a pivotal year for ANZ where we completed the acquisition of Suncorp Bank, and saw the benefits of our simplification agenda as well as targeted investments in our core banking businesses.   “While we are managing the bank for today, we are also preparing for the future. Our migration to a contemporary dual-platform business is well progressed and is helping us deliver good customer outcomes and consistent financial returns to shareholders.” Shayne said.    Find a snapshot of our full year results for 2024 below, and full coverage on bluenotes: https://lnkd.in/gWB79HR4

“Bite off more than you can chew, and chew like hell!” That's how Yeekei Chan describes his remarkable journey over the past decade. Yeekei has worked in four different roles in three countries, with 1 year travelling around the world covering 115,000 kilometres, 30 countries and four continents.       As Head of Financial Institutions Group (FIG), South East Asia, India and Middle East, Yeekei oversees the coverage of a priority segment for ANZ which includes banks, insurance, diversified financials, funds and financial sponsors. His career path is anything but conventional. Starting as a graduate at ANZ, he then moved to London and took a role at JP Morgan, which stretched into a ten year stint. In 2017, he returned back to ANZ drawn by its considerable international footprint amongst the Australian banks.      Then, an opportunity arose to lead the FIG Singapore team and he jumped at the chance to lead a dynamic team in a strategic regional hub.         His role now covers South-East Asia, India, and the Middle East, a region which offers some of the most promising growth opportunities for financial institutions in the coming decade. “Working with our experienced local coverage teams, I’m excited to continue to build out our regional platform in support of our partners and customers.”

"It's time to normalise menopause. Talking about menopause can be difficult. Women have to judge how uncomfortable to make people with every conversation.    "When I was addressing a group of senior leaders, I had to stop my presentation and say: “OK, for those of you who don't know what's going on, I'm a woman of a certain age and if you haven't seen it before, this is called a hot flush.    "I can still remember the moment. A number of middle-aged women in the group stood up and started clapping." Menopause is something that Maile Carnegie is helping to normalise – both within ANZ but also across society more broadly.    At ANZ, we're educating employees and managers on how to have open conversations. What steps will you take to create a more supportive environment for discussions about menopause in the workplace?
