• Help validate the next generation of financial crime models as the bank transitions from rule-based alerting to modern machine learning/GenAI approaches. 

• Join a newly built capability within Risk Management focused on high-priority model validation in a heavily regulated area. 

• Build deep domain expertise now, with opportunities over time to broaden into wider model validation and future AI-related work. 

Do Work That Matters:

Be part of the team that helps CommBank make better decisions. Risk Management partners across the Group to identify, assess and manage risk, protecting our customers, strengthening the bank and enabling sustainable growth. Join a collaborative team where you’ll solve complex challenges, influence strategic decisions, and use data, insights and innovation to make a meaningful impact. 

In this role, you’ll support a newly created capability focused on validating financial crime models as the bank moves from traditional rule-based alerting towards more modern machine learning approaches. You’ll apply strong technical judgement in a highly regulated environment, partnering with stakeholders to assess complex models and strengthen model risk outcomes.

You will: 

• Validate financial crime models as part of a dedicated team supporting a new capability within model validation. 

• Apply your data science and machine learning expertise to assess models designed to detect patterns and identify potentially risky transactions. 

• Deep dive into previous projects, technical decisions and problem-solving approaches to bring strong validation judgement to complex use cases. 

• Work closely with stakeholders in a regulatory-heavy domain where model risk, governance and technical quality all matter. 

• Contribute to a collaborative team environment that values learning, capability growth and exposure to different projects over time.
