Bank Teller (Part-Time)

Schedule:

This position will be flexible, part-time hours during the week (Mon-Fri) and 7:45 am - 12:15 pm on Saturdays.

Company Description

Our emphasis here at Community First is on establishing long term, personal relationships with our customers. Our motto, "Putting Relationships First," is not just a slogan from days gone by, it is our commitment to doing business the way it used to be done. Here we believe that customer service is an attitude, not a department, and we vow to get answers to your financial questions in a quick, friendly way, without the run around you can get at the big banks.

This old fashioned dedication to personal service is enhanced by the latest technology available at the very biggest banks. We offer 24 hour Internet and telephone access to your accounts, imaged bank statements, multiple ATM locations, debit and credit cards, and overdraft protection. We are constantly looking for ways to have technology help us do things better and faster.

CFNB offers competitive salaries, a generous array of benefits, and an engaging work environment. When we are fully engaged at work, we are more effective and more successful. Customers can sense our commitment, dedication, and enthusiasm for our bank and therefore feel more comfortable entrusting us with their business and financial needs.

Our product is outstanding customer service and each one of us is better able to exemplify that service when we feel satisfied, recognized, and rewarded in our work. This is the heart of our values and culture—the link between greatness as a company and service—and it applies equally to those who work directly with our customers and those who work behind the scenes to make our services possible.
