Prosple Profiles

I have been fortunate enough to gain experience within a variety of divisions including Finance and Treasury, Risk, Products and Wealth. With each division vastly different, my role has been far from typical or mundane.

If you come into a role similar to mine with an open mind, willingness to learn, organisation skills and a good work ethic, you will enjoy and move forward in your career.

Back in front of the computer, I’m sending settlement instructions, requesting financials from accountants and confirming RSVP’s to upcoming field days. A quick tweet bragging about my office (farm) views for the day, a bit of knockoff office banter and it’s another day done as an ANZ Agri Grad.

In my role as an analyst, I spend most of my time doing the maths. This includes processing and manipulating data and updating and building models.

I love the process of starting with lots of disparate, muddy information about a situation and synthesising until I have an insight that brings the situation into focus.

James Fricker studied a Bachelor of Mathematics (Statistics) and Bachelor of Finance at the University of Adelaide and is now a Technology Graduate at ANZ.

Some of my most satisfying moments have been after implementing a solution and being able to show the result on the application. Having others use something you have helped build is very rewarding.
