Branch Banker

Lead Bank is not your traditional community bank. Our out-of-the-box thinking, strategy, open-concept locations, and non-traditional way of banking are just the start of our uniqueness. We have been a fixture in the Kansas City community since 1928, offering a comprehensive list of financial services including business banking, personal banking, and banking as a service.
 
We are looking for a Branch Banker to join our Deposit team! The Branch Banker position is one of the most important client support roles at Lead Bank. Branch Bankers are the faces of our organization and work alongside our clients to help them achieve their financial goals. Our team of Bankers work in a fast-paced environment where they multitask and prioritize their work using their discretion. We intentionally created a non-traditional banking atmosphere that allows each client to have a personalized, immersive experience.
 
Our Branch Bankers develop fluency with Lead’s suite of personal and business financial products. Whether in branch or through our online platform, Branch Bankers generate new business and support existing clients. Our relationship-building approach removes any sales pressure, allowing our bankers to focus on what’s most important to us: meeting the needs of our clients.
 
Interdepartmental collaboration has allowed Branch Bankers to learn and find new passions. A majority of our Branch Bankers remain on the Lead Bank team and have since grown their careers in other areas of the Bank, including Accounting, Lending, and Management.
