As the leading institute of the Austrian savings banks, we are one of the country’s biggest banking groups, with regional savings banks. As Erste Group, we are present in the banking markets of 7 countries in the CEE region. That’s how we can apply local knowledge to servicing to more than 16 million customers. We provide financing to families for their living space and help entrepreneurs with their plans as well as founders taking their first step towards independence.

A career that helps you progress, and a role with responsibility.

In a changing world, people need orientation. Occupations with perspectives. Assignments that make sense. And people who think ahead. Working at Erste Bank means shaping one´s own career, taking on personal responsibility and learning from setbacks.

As an Erste Bank employee, you are not only working in the banking business. Working at Erste Bank means creating products that are ahead of the times. Developing services that bring advances for our customers. Identifying markets that others haven’t recognized yet. Our company is among the best employers in the country. We take work-life balance seriously and have created a completely new work environment at Erste Campus, our head office.

Excellence is only possible when employees with personality, talent and experience come together. That’s why we assign as much responsibility to our employees and seek to hire people who contribute to making us what we war: Austria’s most modern bank.
