Job description

Senior Manager Portfolio Management, Group Financial Risk

See the bigger picture. Shape the future of risk.

You thrive in a people‑first, innovative team. You’ll play a highly valued, visible role shaping the way we manage credit risk across the Group.

See yourself in our team

Group Financial Risk (GFR) is a collaborative, forward‑thinking team driving the Group’s credit frameworks, managing credit risk exposures, and supporting non‑retail customers through the Group Credit Structuring Unit.

Within GFR, the Portfolio, Policy and Provisioning (PPP) team partners with Line 1 and Line 2 teams across all Business Units (Bus) and Subsidiaries to deliver best practice credit risk policies and strategies.

The Portfolio Management team – part of PPP – designs, manages, and monitors Group‑wide credit risk policies, standards, and concentration limits. We provide expert advice on regulatory requirements and deliver insights to senior management, the Board, and external stakeholders. Learning, curiosity, and collaboration are core to how we work — and your ideas can shape real outcomes.

Do work that matters

Reporting to the Head of Portfolio Management , you’ll play a key role in shaping the Group’s non‑retail credit risk portfolio. You’ll connect portfolio insights, external conditions, and policy changes to support senior leaders and the Board in making informed, high‑impact decisions.

As Senior Manager, Portfolio Management , you’ll lead strategic non‑retail credit risk initiatives, champion continuous improvement in risk reporting and policy development, and strengthen our credit portfolio management. You’ll gain valuable exposure to senior leaders, build a strong peer network, and be challenged to solve evolving issues.

We’re a people‑driven function where learning and development are embedded in everything we do — from mentorship and project exposure to opportunities for cross‑functional collaboration.

Your responsibilities include :

  • Advising senior management and BUs on APRA Prudential Standards for Credit Risk (APS 112, APS 113, APS 220, APS 221).
  • Leading the development of Group‑wide reporting and analytical tools to monitor origination deal quality and portfolio trends for non‑retail exposures.
  • Supporting the revision of the Group’s Security Lending Margin (SLM) Framework, using data analysis and modelling to enhance risk sensitivity.
  • Representing PPP as a subject matter expert on strategic projects, industry discussions, and regulatory engagements.
  • Enhancing the team’s data and analytics capabilities to support regular and ad‑hoc queries, deep dives, and portfolio optimisation.
  • Researching, , and developing Group‑wide credit policies in response to regulatory change or Board requirements.
  • Engaging with Business Units to ensure standards and strategies align with Group Credit Policy and regulatory requirements.
  • Building strong relationships with key stakeholders across the Group.

We’re interested in hearing from people who have

  • Practical experience in credit risk origination, decisioning, policy development, or portfolio management.
  • Strong analytical skills and a data‑driven approach to policy and portfolio management.
  • Strong organisational skills to manage complex workflows and large stakeholder groups.
  • Working knowledge of APRA Prudential Standards for Credit Risk (APS 112, APS 113, APS 220, APS 221).
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with a talent for clear, insightful recommendations.
  • A growth mindset — curious, humble, and eager to learn, with a passion for innovation and continuous improvement.
  • The ability to think critically and challenge convention.
  • Tertiary qualification in finance, economics, or a quantitative discipline.
  • A culture of learning, growth and connection

    We value people — we learn from each other, share ideas freely, and celebrate diverse thinking. You’ll have flexibility in how you work, balanced with opportunities to connect in person and grow your professional network.

    We’re a proactive, positive team that empowers the wider business to thrive — with customer outcomes and risk excellence at the heart of what we do. You’ll take initiative, offer trusted advice, and be a catalyst for meaningful change.

    From here, your opportunities are endless.

    We support our people with the flexibility to balance where work is done with at least half their time each month connecting in office. We also have many other flexible working options available including changing start and finish times, part‑time arrangements and job share to name a few. Talk to us about how these arrangements might work in the role you’re interested in.

    If you’re already part of the Commonwealth Bank Group (including Bankwest, x15ventures), you’ll need to apply through Sidekick to submit a valid application. We’re keen to support you with the next step in your career.

    We’re aware of some accessibility issues on this site, particularly for screen reader users. We want to make finding your dream job as easy as possible, so if you require additional support please contact HR Direct on 1800 989 696.
