This is an opportunity to work for a bank that

What You'll Do

  • Develop new lending and deposit opportunities through active prospecting and strong Centers of Influence (COI) relationships (CPAs, attorneys, brokers, CRE agents, etc.)
  • Manage existing client relationships by supporting account needs, resolving issues, and conducting regular check-ins
  • Analyze financial statements, interview borrowers, structure loan requests, and prepare credit recommendations
  • Monitor existing loans and take appropriate action on delinquencies or risk concerns
  • Collaborate with internal partners (Treasury, Residential, Insurance, Operations, etc.) to deliver comprehensive financial solutions
  • Participate in community and professional events to elevate the bank's presence and expand your referral network
  • Maintain strong understanding of internal policies, credit guidelines, and compliance requirements

What You Bring

  • Experience calculating loan terms, interest, and deal structures
  • Ability to manage multiple client needs and projects simultaneously
  • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office; CRM experience (Salesforce or similar) a plus

Experience Needed

    in business banking, lending sales, or commercial banking — including experience analyzing financials or credit structures
  • Bachelor's degree in Business, Finance, Accounting, or related field preferred (but not required with equivalent experience)

Why This Bank

  • Growth-minded institution
    with a strong regional presence
  • Modern, relationship-first culture
