IN good news for the region, the entire team at Bank of Queensland (BOQ) Beerwah, including highly respected former Owner Manager, Martin Kavanagh, have decided to stay on as BOQ Beerwah staff members as BOQ transitions its Owner Managed Branch (OMB) network back to corporate operation.
BOQ announced in August that it would convert its OMB network to corporate branches, at the same time continuing to collaborate closely with Owner Managers through the conversion process.
This transition, completed by the end of February 2025, marks a significant shift in BOQ’s 150-year history.
Since the announcement, BOQ has been focused on ensuring a seamless transition for both its people and customers.
The bank has invited expressions of interest from Owner Managers and their employees to continue their careers with BOQ Group as corporate employees.
The response has been overwhelmingly positive, with many team members applying for roles at BOQ.
Martin Kavanagh, who has been a pivotal figure at BOQ Beerwah, expressed his enthusiasm for the future.
“Our team is excited to continue providing the exceptional service our customers have come to expect,” he said.
BOQ remains dedicated to ensuring that customers continue to enjoy the same high level of service during and after this transition.
The commitment and unity shown by the BOQ Beerwah team, highlight the spirit and resilience of the staff, and ongoing commitment to their local community as they embark on this new chapter together.
