Bendigo Community Bank Cannonvale-Proserpine Adds Business Banking To Service Range.

Luke Sheppard, Senior Business Relationship Manager for North Central Queensland and Cairns is now available to discuss a range of business banking services at Bendigo Community Bank Cannonvale-Proserpine.
Branch Manager Amanda Anderson said: “We are excited to be able to offer Luke’s Business Banking expertise at our Branch, in addition to all our other face-to-face full banking services from 9:30am-4pm Monday to Friday”.
“Luke is now available to help our wonderful Whitsundays business community with banking services such as business lending (over $500K), business property purchases and construction, equipment finance, overdrafts, investments and refinancing” she said.  
Personalised Local Service
While many other financial institutions increasingly require their business customers to conduct their business online or through a call centre with no specific manager or point of contact, Luke enjoys meeting our customers face-to-face at the Cannonvale-Proserpine Branch.
He travels to Cannonvale and Airlie Beach on a very regular basis to work with and discuss the specific needs of existing Bendigo Bank customers and with new-to-bank customers wishing to take advantage of Bendigo’s acclaimed personal service difference.
Huge Opportunities
Luke Sheppard said: “I see huge opportunities for the Whitsundays business community and the region more broadly. The Whitsundays is such a fantastic place with enormous potential”.
“I’ve been involved in banking for almost 30 years, having started as a Batch Clerk – a junior to a teller – and progressing to my current role as Senior Business Relationship Manager for North Central Queensland and Cairns”.
“What I enjoy most about Bendigo Community Banking is that it’s based on a 'profit-with-purpose' model, which means our profits are returned directly to the community that has generated them.
Community Banking Makes A Difference
“For our customers, their banking is making a real difference. Every day our customers help change lives, and save lives, simply by banking with us - so it’s important that we have local people and businesses doing their banking with us so we can keep on doing what we love doing. You may not think who you bank with matters, but it does,” said Luke.
Amanda said “As Australia’s most trusted bank, we’re big on products, big on service and big on local banking. You need a bank to provide the products and services you need - and we need your banking to help us make a difference - so please get in touch with our friendly local staff if we can help you with any of your residential, business lending or any other banking requirements.”
Luke Sheppard is based in Mackay and married with a son who is obsessed with rugby league, boxing, dirt bikes and fishing. You can make an appointment to see Luke by calling 07 4948 3599 or emailing cannonvale&proserpinemailbox@bendigoadelaide.com.au
