As well as assure customers that the services and solutions were shaped to suit the needs of Victorians. The greater group delivered a sophisticated, modern, and engaging space with a focus on open layout and the local community.

A key milestone delivered

The bank’s Melbourne CBD-based flagship branch at 233 Collins marked a key milestone of the roll-out. Delivering a new branch paired with a unique adjoining concept store and investment resource centre, called The Investore.
