ANZ is reportedly looking at cutting more than 100 jobs from its New Zealand technology teams.<\/p>\n
The Australian Financial Review is reporting that the bank told its NZ staff this week that it was cutting some of its 1500 permanent IT roles.<\/p>\n
The AFR said more than 400 roles would be affected by the restructuring, with more than 100 workers expected to be made redundant.<\/p>\n
The paper said ANZ was looking to consolidate software testing under a single strategic partner.<\/p>\n
A spokesperson for ANZ NZ confirmed it was considering changes to its technology team.<\/p>\n
It said that included bringing together related functions like data, AI and engineering for greater consistency, and to make the most of expertise across ANZ.<\/p>\n
“As part of our ongoing commitment to operate efficiently and deliver for customers, ANZ NZ regularly reviews how our business is structured.”<\/p>\n
The spokesperson said the proposed changes impacted non-customer facing roles.<\/p>\n
“Our immediate priority is supporting our people through this process. As this is an active consultation process, we are unable to comment further at this stage,” the spokesperson said.<\/p>\n
RNZ understands the bank wanted to cut 15 customer-facing roles in Dunedin to two, with the other affected staff given the option to transfer to Auckland, Wellington or Christchurch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"ANZ is reportedly looking at cutting more than 100 jobs from its New Zealand technology teams.
