You’ll be leading a GenAI initiative that’s not just experimental, but actually reshaping how credit reports are generated across Australia and New Zealand. It’s perfect for someone who loves building new things from scratch, working closely with both tech and business experts, and seeing their ideas come to life in a tangible product. Plus, the AI Impact Lab environment gives you the space to be creative while staying connected to a global organization.”
