About Us

At ANZ, we're applying new ways technology and data can be harnessed as we work towards a common goal: to improve the financial wellbeing and sustainability of our millions of customers.

About the Role

As a Data Specialist within our Internal Audit (IA) team, you will play a pivotal role in expanding our Data Analytics capability to enhance risk insight and assurance coverage. Working across multiple IA teams, you’ll contribute to strengthening ANZ’s enterprise-wide risk lens through the innovative use of data, automation, and AI.

You will partner closely with colleagues across the audit function to understand data needs, support risk-focused work, and design analytical solutions that uplift our insight and coverage. This role also contributes to building a data‑driven culture within Internal Audit, helping to embed better ways of working through analytics, automation, and emerging technologies.

Banking is changing and we’re changing with it, giving our people great opportunities to try new things, learn and grow. Whatever your role at ANZ, you’ll be building your future, while helping to build ours.

As a Data Specialist, you will: 

• Support the Chapter Lead and Senior Data Scientist in delivering priority initiatives aligned to Internal Audit’s AI and Data Strategy.

• A track record of consistently delivering results, even in the face of challenges or uncertainty.
• Qualifications in Data/Business Analytics, Data Science, Computer Science, Mathematics/Statistics, Information Systems, or related fields.
