WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR:
We're looking for a Treasury Sales Officer or Associate to join our team in Troy, MI.
As a community bank, we're dedicated to supporting our customers and helping them thrive. In this role, your focus is on new and existing business customers. Your mission is simple - connect them to the treasury products that allow them to handle their business more efficiently and securely.
By partnering with our Commercial Bankers and branch personnel, you will complete Treasury Management Reviews at the Officer level and provide support during sales conversations and assist with preparing presentations and proposals at the Associate level. At either level, you will need to be administratively capable and an expert in treasury management product information.
Someone who enjoys technology and is naturally curious is likely to thrive in this position. We have many solutions available, and are continuously adding to, refining, and upgrading our product lineup.

We take pride in selling the right product for the customer's needs and you will represent the Bank with integrity.

Officer level candidates must have prior experience in Treasury Management/Banking, however, at the Associate level prior knowledge of treasury management and banking is helpful, but it's not required.
You'll be expected to be in-office for the first few months while you're learning the ropes, and after may be eligible to work from home 20% of the time.
This opportunity is perfect for salespeople who are energized by contributing to the community they live in. Through the support our Treasury Management team provides local businesses, organizations are able to streamline processes, protect their finances, and capitalize on investments in technology that help them get to the next level.
Both the Treasury Sales Officer and Associate roles are customer facing, and we're looking for someone who is excited to get out there and build their career in treasury management.
