## Job description

More than 130 years ago, we started with core values that never go out of style: listen, learn and help businesses and individuals reach their goals.

In addition to offering a source of capital to personal banking clients and businesses of all sizes, we place a high importance on employee volunteerism and donate millions of dollars each year to community organizations.

As a Client Relationship Consultant, you’ll be the welcoming face of our branch and a trusted partner for our clients. Your work helps people confidently navigate their financial lives while supporting strong, lasting relationships with our bank. Every interaction is an opportunity to create a positive experience and make a meaningful impact.

- Consult with clients to understand their needs and introduce products, services, and digital banking tools that support their goals.
- Identify opportunities to expand relationships and make referrals to partners across Commercial Lending, Treasury Management, Mortgage Lending, and Investment Services.
- Proactively communicate with clients to educate, resolve concerns, strengthen loyalty, and gather feedback.
- Hold appointments to identify client needs, provide solutions, and support their financial success.
- Open new accounts, maintain existing accounts, and resolve account issues while ensuring compliance with policies, procedures, and regulations.
- Support branch lending processes by answering questions, completing applications, and preparing accurate documentation.

## What we're looking for

- You have a High School Diploma or G.E.D. (Required).
- You bring entry-level experience in teller, banking, or sales roles with established goals (Required).
- An equivalent combination of education and experience can be considered in lieu of a degree.

What helps you shine

- You’re confident discussing banking products and services and can recognize opportunities to recommend solutions.

- You have a basic understanding of retail banking products, policies, and systems.
- You can review financial information, including credit data, to identify client needs and suggest options.
- You are comfortable with Microsoft Outlook, Word, and other business tools.
- You demonstrate professionalism in person, over the phone, and via email.
- You can lift up to 25 pounds as part of the role.
