Dozens of branches from the major banks across Australia are set to close causing job losses, with more than 550 sites shuttered since 2020

In total, 37 branches will be shuttered across the nation, with the union describing the closures as reaching “crisis point”.

Westpac Group is making the most dramatic cuts with 24 branches being shut down across the country.

In NSW, Westpac branches in the suburbs of Lakemba, Engadine, Corrimal and Kingscliff will be shuttered in coming months, while Queensland’s branches in Ashmore, Nerang and Rockhampton will also be shut.

The closures will also hit Westpac’s Western Australian branches based in Mandurah and South Perth, while the Berrimah branch in the Northern Territory has also been cut.
