Former Mulwala Water Ski Club employee Kaye Leanne Ferguson's matter was listed in Albury Local Court on Tuesday.
She was arrested and charged last year after allegedly transferring the money to multiple offshore bank accounts in December 2020 and January 2021.

Ferguson, who had been employed at the business in a financial role, did not appear in person when the case was mentioned in court on Tuesday.

Prosecutor Shannon Matchett said that would allow Ferguson to be committed for sentence in the Albury District Court.
