Senior Loans Officer

Our Loans Officers are available to our members through in-person meetings, phone calls, and other forms of electronic communication. The ability to provide expert advice when it’s truly needed is crucial to meeting our members needs. We know our members, and to see their successes is extremely rewarding. The Senior Loans Officer is responsible for oversight of their own lending portfolio, which will include agriculture, and commercial files. Each portfolio has a different level of complexity and presents the opportunity for new learnings each and every day! The role of Loans Officer can be challenging, yet rewarding, and the reward far outweighs the challenge!

You have a desire to learn and have an in-depth understanding of lending practices and procedures. The ideal candidate will have many years of service in the credit union system, and a minimum of six to ten years as a lender. You have an appetite for risk, and know when to take the risk, and when to shy away from it. You will be responsible to mitigate risk of default. When required you will initiate action to collect on delinquent loans, as necessary.

Building relationships is important. In fact, it is essential to our business. The other key part of the Loans Officer role is to foster new relationships and grow new business. You will regularly visit and maintain contact with your current and potential members. You enjoy the rush of that first contact, and have no problem popping into a business for the first time to meet the owner and take those first steps in fostering a relationship. When the time is right, you’ll ask for the business!

This exciting opportunity is available in our Quill Lake Branch; however, most of your work time will be spent out of the office fostering relationships. You will be required to travel within and outside of our trading area and to other branches. You will participate in a comprehensive development plan, equipping you with the knowledge and tools to confidently assist our members, and grow your career. You will be part of an amazing team, working together to meet the member’s and organization’s goals!
