Portuguese term or phrase: Caixa de banco
Não sei se "bank cashier" ou somente "cashier" serviria, pois "cashier trata-se da pessoa/ emprego de "caixa".
Na minha tradução "caixa" refere-se ao local que a pessoa se dirige para realizr um pagamento. Seria a mesma coisa?

Teller


Explanation:
Bank teller é o nome da posição de trabalho dentro da empresa. Por exemplo, para um anúncio de emprego, se usaria "bank teller". Agora, quando você quer dizer que uma pessoa precisa de dirigir ao caixa para efetuar um pagamento, se usa simplesmente "teller". Quando você precisar se referir ao próprio caixa onde está o dinheiro, então você usa "cashbox".

Example sentence(s):
  • You need to get in the teller line to see a teller.
  • The teller would be able to process this deposit for you, sir.

Cashier


Explanation:
You can use 'cashier' in the sense of the place and the person in the UK and other variants. I think 'teller' is US-specific, though it may be used elsewhere too.

Here's an example of a job position for a cashier:
