PPP delivers Westpac Group’s property, procurement, and protective security requirements. This program will offer you a unique opportunity to work across a function that touches all parts of the bank.
This is an 18 to 24-month program with 3x 6-month rotations (plus an optional rotation across one of the other functions within Corporate Services). You will complete six-month rotations in each of the PPP teams of Group Property, Group Procurement and Group Protective Services.
No two days or rotations are the same. One day you may be working through the risks of using a large supplier, the next you might support the Group’s response to a crisis, and another you might be visiting a new corporate site under construction.
Upon conclusion of the program, we’ll support you with a role within PPP based on your interests and business needs, as you embark on your Westpac career.

When you join Westpac Group, you’ll be empowered to make a difference, speak your truth and discover what success means to you.
The quality of the work and the people you work with.
Huge amount of opportunity to learn and grow.
Flexibility, atmosphere.
Rotating around between teams ensures I am learning lots and meeting heaps of people.
Great extracurricular opportunities to be involved in - from employee action groups to Toastmasters clubs.
Sometimes it is difficult to contact/work with departments outside of your area.
Because it's so big, it's very slow to move with change and onboarding to systems.
Having set days to come into the office. Hard to find a job after graduate program finishes.
Too many systems.
We are big, old and clunky. This means things can take ages to actually get done, and there can be heaps of red tape.
