  • Process Improvement: Identify process gaps, risks, and improvement opportunities, and proactively collaborate with compliance, risk, technology, and product teams to recommend and implement solutions.
  • Documentation: Participate in building, improving, and documenting operational procedures and controls.

Required Qualifications:
  • Prior experience in bank operations (deposit, branch, or back-office).
  • Strong knowledge of ACH operations, including disputes and stop payments.
  • Experience with new account onboarding for business entities.
  • Working knowledge of core banking regulations.
  • Ability to review and understand business organizational documents.
  • High attention to detail with excellent organizational and follow-through skills.
  • Requires a college degree in business, finance, communications or a related field and 4+ years of experience in branch banking, banking operations, policies, procedures and communications, both written and verbal. A combination of education and experience may meet qualifications
  • A self-directed and motivated individual who is comfortable working independently.

Preferred Qualifications:
