6.00 AM 

Alarm sounds press the snooze button, forcing me to get out of bed for the second time and by now I’m ready to pop my runners on to go for a morning walk around the lake before work. 

7.15 AM 

When I return from my walk, I get ready for the day- shower, breakie, lunch prep while listening to the news or a podcast. I leave the house and drive a quick 8 minutes to the office.  

8.15 AM 

Arrive at work which is the business center connected to the branch. It’s a morning hello to the team, debrief of our weekend and then press the power button on my computer. First thing is checking and replying to emails, account monitoring and reviewing any reports that have been sent through.  

9.00 AM

My manager and I meet and set out our priorities for the day/week and start working through my to do list. This morning I am sending off annual reviews that are due, preparing documents for upcoming meetings and beginning to collate information for a new customer request.   

12.00 PM

Have a quick bite to eat and then my manager and I drive to the customer meetings that have been arranged on farm. 

1.30 PM 

We arrive at our customer’s farm, who is eager to show us around the property and the improvements they have made on farm. We take photos of the new infrastructure for a valuation that is being prepared and then sit down to sign the documents that were prepared earlier. 

2.30 PM

We hop back in the car to head back to the office. On the way, we meet with another customer at their property to sign equipment finance documents for a vehicle they are purchasing. 

3.30 PM

We arrive back to the office, make ourselves a cuppa for the afternoon to finish the to do list for the day. The afternoon tasks involved sending off the documents that were signed, uploading the photos to a valuation, returning a couple of missed calls and emails, requesting financials and completing compliance, finishing data entry for an application.

5.15 PM 

Turn off my computer, say goodbye to the team and then head out the door to netball training and then then head home to cook dinner, catchup with my housemates and get off to bed to do it all again tomorrow.
