customer-owned organisation.
- Helping educators get more from their banking, identifying opportunities across everyday banking, saving and lending based on their individual needs.
- Bringing our Educator value proposition to life, connecting educators with tailored banking products, packages and benefits that support their needs, while continually learning what they value from their banking relationship.
- Helping educators navigate home ownership and lending, supporting members from their initial conversation and assessment through to settlement and their ongoing relationship with Credit Union SA.
- Developing and delivering a targeted business development plan that builds engagement, membership, everyday banking and lending within the Education sector.
- Building solid relationships with schools and education-sector stakeholders to identify partnership and member-growth opportunities.
- Proactively maintaining relationships with existing Education members, looking for opportunities to support them through different stages of their lives and careers.
