North Cascades Bank

North Cascades Bank has given me a unique opportunity where I am a member of a team that supports the marketing needs for all of our branches. I help develop strategies, manage marketing initiatives, and have the opportunity to contribute to projects in many creative ways which I really enjoy. North Cascades was interested in my outgoingness, and what I could contribute to a small bank with a large outreach. The banking industry is new to me, but the support I get from my colleagues and the online training courses assigned to me are really helpful in learning the way our industry works.

The moment I walked in to North Cascades Bank for my first job interview, I felt comfortable and at ease. I was greeted with warm friendly smiles and relaxed conversation. During the interview I felt a strong sense of pride and company loyalty. This was unlike any interview I have been in before; their choice was not only to add an employee but to add a member to their North Cascades Bank family.

Almost three years later, I share the same sense of pride and company loyalty I felt in that first interview. Every member of our North Cascades Bank team appreciates dedication and hard work; not only at work but in our communities. We encourage innovative ideas in an effort to streamline processes and continue growth.

In an industry built on compliance, North Cascades Bank has successfully managed to create an environment built on teamwork, accountability, community involvement, accomplishments, and fun.

I walk in the door every day knowing today holds a great opportunity to be part of something meaningful; not only to our team but the lives of our customers and community. I leave with the knowledge that North Cascades Bank has given me the chance to become part of a remarkable team, but even better, part of a family.

Nineteen years ago North Cascades Bank purchased the small community bank I was working for. I remember feeling anxious about how the change would impact my job. I soon realized my new employer shared the same priorities I have had through out my 37 years of banking, which is to provide exceptional, personalized customer service. I also learned quickly that with hard work and dedication a person could grow their career with the company and receive support and encouragement from supervisors and senior management.

I began my banking journey fresh out of high school as a teller. While working for North Cascades Bank, I have had the opportunity to transition from a teller to new accounts area, and was eventually promoted to a branch manager. In 2017 the bank made plans to develop a teller training program and hire a new trainer. While I enjoyed my role as branch manager and the interaction with customers on a daily basis, I thought training new tellers would be extremely rewarding. I applied for the Trainer position and I now lead the bank’s teller training program. In my current training position I have the opportunity to share my banking experiences while at the same time mentoring and encouraging new tellers. I hope that after hearing the story of my journey, all North Cascades Bank tellers will realize the opportunities available to them and feel confident in knowing that there will be lots of encouragement and support along the way.
