Branch Manager – Nelson

Nelson Building Society

  • Nelson
  • Permanent

About NBS
NBS is a Building Society founded in 1862, a mutual entity, owned by clients, and incorporated under the Building Societies Act 1965.  With a proud history and exciting future, NBS is dedicated to seeing communities, families, individuals and businesses thrive.

With a focus on delivering exceptional experiences for clients and communities, NBS is investing in leadership capability, digital solutions, and operational excellence across the business.

The opportunity
As Branch Manager for NBS’s flagship branch in Nelson, you will oversee all aspects of branch operations, including credit, client service, compliance, and team leadership. Unlike many branch roles, this position combines both leadership and direct client work, giving you the chance to lead a professional team while also maintaining hands-on involvement in complex financial solutions for clients. You’ll play a key role in growing the branch and building lasting relationships across the community.

What you’ll bring to the role
This is an exciting opportunity for someone with strong technical knowledge of financial products and complex transactions, combined with the motivation to step into leadership.  Previous management experience is preferred but not essential – this is also a great opportunity for someone ready to transition into leading a team while continuing to work closely with clients.  You may have come from a commercial lending or similar lending role and be looking for a change, or you may have experience in managing lending portfolios and wish to step into a more diverse role. You’ll have excellent communication skills, a passion for working with clients, and a commitment to achieving business goals.  Alignment with NBS’s ethos of investing in people and community is essential. 

Whether you are already in a leadership role or are looking to broaden your career, this is a chance to make a meaningful impact in Nelson.
