Careers at NBS

About NBS

We’re a full banking service provider, dedicated to understanding our client’s needs and to providing a superior level of service. We make banking easy for our clients – whether individuals, families, businesses or community-focused organisations and work together to support their growth and success. 

We believe in placing an emphasis on building long-term, personal relationships with our clients. Every client is more than just a number to us; they’re part of our extended family.  

It’s why our clients stay with us year after year and why we have multi-generational families who bank with us.

Banking that’s mutually beneficial

Unlike the big banks we're a mutual society. This means we’re owned by our clients, not shareholders and can think differently about our profits.

We invest our profits back into the business to provide service improvements for our clients and offer support to local community groups through our sponsorship and community investment programme.

Our clients love that we play a part in building stronger, more connected communities by supporting and investing in hundreds of charities and community organisations in the regions they live in each year.

Over the last 10 years we’ve invested over $7 million into our communities.
