"Don't write off regional. You can have a rewarding, challenging career living regionally and be well-remunerated” with Felicity Taylor

This week we are sitting down with Felicity Taylor, branch manager at Rabobank Australia in Moree. In this conversation, she shares her journey from growing up in Moree to working in banking and the importance of being involved in the community. 

Felicity discusses her role as a branch manager and the satisfaction she gets from helping clients achieve their goals. For anyone familiar with Flick you know she is incredibly involved in her local community from the tourism board, to the Young Aggies group through to the Triathlon and run clubs!

This episode is part of our partnership with Rabobank Australia.

Other things we discuss:

  • Living in a rural community and being involved in the community is a responsibility and a way to have a vibrant lifestyle.

  • Banking in rural areas requires empathy, relationship-building, and communication skills.

  • Felicity enjoys helping clients execute their dreams and supporting multi-generational farming families.

  • Being involved in community organisations and volunteering is a way to leave a positive legacy and ensure succession.

  • Felicity values the support and opportunities provided by Rabobank and encourages others to consider a career in banking.
