What’s the role?

As a Member Service Representative 2, under general supervision you will provide a full range of member driven transactions with respect to all credit union services (deposit and some lending products) through a variety of emerging channels. Coastal Community Credit Union strives “to be the leaders in building relationships that improve financial health, enrich people’s lives and build healthier communities" and it is your responsibility as the Member Service Representative 2 in this emerging member service position to be the primary point of contact for members and carry the vision statement forward in order to build, maintain, attract and expand the member’s relationship with the credit union.

Ideally, you are a flexible, collaborative team player with:

• Excellent communication skills and the ability to articulate in a clear, concise manner is required to transfer information and understanding to members.
