Digital Transformation Focus Bankwest is undergoing a significant digital transformation, closing physical branch offices to become a 'digital only' bank. This shift presents an opportunity for sales professionals to offer digital solutions and services to support Bankwest's transition and enhance their customer experience.

Expansion in IT & Operations With Bankwest increasing headcount by 500 in IT, operations, and customer service roles, there is a potential sales opportunity for technology providers, outsourcing companies, and consultancies to offer innovative solutions and services to support Bankwest's growth and digital initiatives.

Merger with BMO Following the merger with BMO and the integration of technology, sales professionals can explore cross-selling opportunities by offering complementary products and services that align with the combined capabilities of Bankwest and BMO, tapping into a broader market and customer base.

Leadership Team Addition The recent addition of Sherri Kelley to Bankwest's leadership team signifies a potential sales opportunity for executive coaching, leadership development programs, and HR solutions providers to engage with Bankwest and support the professional growth and effectiveness of key personnel within the organization.

Competitive Positioning in Financial Services Bankwest's competitive positioning amidst similar companies like Suncorp Group, St.George Bank, and Bendigo and Adelaide Bank highlights the need for sales development representatives to differentiate offerings, tailor solutions, and showcase unique value propositions to secure partnerships and collaborations within the financial services sector.
