Who we are

Our Who we are behaviours are:

We’re customer obsessed - We put our customers at the centre of everything we do. Without them, there would be no NAB.

We keep it simple – We make things simple for colleagues so we can be exceptional for our customers.

We move with speed – We innovate and look for better ways to deliver. If we make mistakes, we learn and correct as we go.

We own it - We never say “that's not my job”. We take ownership and follow up until it's resolved.

We win together - We bring the right people together, knowing diverse ideas achieve more.
