Recognising that 39% of its people are under 35 years old, our parent company, Heartland Group Holdings Limited (Heartland Group) is committed to investing in those in the early stages of their careers through attracting and developing talent within this demographic.
Heartland’s Rangatahi (Youth) Advisory Board was established in 2020 to leverage the insights of its members and broaden the perspectives on Heartland’s strategic direction. It offers young employees across Heartland Group a chance to learn and interact with executives and directors, while also giving leaders valuable insights from Heartland’s younger generation.
"Serving on the Rangatahi Advisory Board for the past two years has broadened my network across Heartland Group in New Zealand and Australia. I’ve contributed to the Manawa Ako internship programme and various digital initiatives, which has become a truly rewarding part of my Heartland journey. Being part of the Board has broadened my views and deepened my appreciation for the bank’s broader activities." – Ben Lambert, Team Leader, Customer Recoveries
“Being a member of the Rangatahi Advisory Board has boosted my confidence in sharing my opinions and highlighted the importance of seeking insights from younger team members” – Khorshed Tarapore, Manager, Credit Risk Analytics
