We are proud to celebrate this International Credit Union Day. As a Member owned organisation we are empowered to improve the financial lives of our members and uplift the communities around us. We have a distinct purpose of helping all Queenslanders live better lives through better finances and if you're a Member, we would love it if you could share a story with us on social media about when being a Queensland Country Member empowered you! 

We've been around since 1971, when our story began in true country spirit – in Mount Isa, Queensland. Fast forward to the 21st century, and the organisation that grew from such humble beginnings now provides financial services to over 100,000 Members all over Queensland and has over $3B in assets. Our Head Office is located in Townsville, home of the Cowboys, and we stand proud with our 450 staff, who are passionate about delivering quality products and services to the regional and rural areas of Queensland.

We know how important it is to service remote communities, and we have a long history of working with Far North Queensland stretching from Innisfail out to Mount Isa and as far North as Weipa. We also look after the regional areas of central Queensland, including Charters Towers, Burdekin, Bowen, Mackay, and Rockhampton regions, and we have eight office locations in the South stretching from Maleny, Brisbane, and Ipswich through to the west in Stanthorpe.

Being a member-owned organisation, returning profits to our members and their communities is important to us, as is our commitment to recruiting locally. We feel our employees should reflect the communities where we operate, and equally, we see the value of investing in our people and providing opportunities to work within their community and continue to give back. Providing paid community volunteer leave for our employees, yearly Community Grants Programs, financial information sessions to local schools, and Donations and Sponsorships to local groups are just some of the ways to help us keep connected in our communities.
