Branch created in bitbucket doesn't appear in GIT

I'm slowly getting the hang of this GIT but stuck on this one...

Our workflow is to create a branch using the 'create branch' feature in JIRA. Go to the story, select 'create branch' which then takes us over to BitBucket where we can create the branch. I then see the new branch along with all of our other branches in bitbucket.

However, when I go to the command line on my machine to checkout the new branch, it can't find it. Using 'git branch -r' pulls the full list of branches I see in BitBucket...but not the one I just created.

Am I missing a key step here?

You can do a git fetch to retrieve all references from the remote.

git branch -a lists all available branches.
