Chris Salm
Head of of Home Lending
Chris brings more than 17 years of comprehensive experience in banking, finance and customer service, having built an impressive career with leading institutions including Bendigo and Adelaide Bank, Mortgage Advice Bureau, and La Trobe Financial.
His eight-plus years at Bendigo and Adelaide Bank saw him take on diverse roles that contributed significantly to his expansive knowledge base. Chris's expertise spans crucial areas including Business Banking, Risk Management, Operations, and Branch Banking. Following his tenure there, he stepped into the role of General Manager at UK stock exchange-listed Mortgage Advice Bureau, before taking on a Senior Manager position at La Trobe Financial. This breadth of experience across multiple aspects of finance makes Chris a versatile and valuable leader within the Podium team.
Outside of work, Chris is a dedicated sportsman with a rich history in cricket, having played with Carlton for 16 years (earning life membership) before moving into coaching with premier Cricket Club Northcote. He still plays basketball with his high school friends weekly and enjoys golf with fellow school dads in their self-titled "Royal Alphington Golf Group." When not on the sporting field, Chris can be found playing guitar, though he admits his singing skills don't quite match his financial expertise.
