Partner Experience (PX) Associate
BACK TO LIST OFPOSTINGS
We are developing deeper connections between communities and their food systems. It’s our conviction that food systems are supported by a broader ecosystem of businesses, organizations, and institutions – going beyond farms and food businesses to include businesses driving meaningful impact on sustainability, equity, and wellness. We create impact by accepting deposits from individuals and businesses who want to drive positive and lasting change with their dollars...and then lending those funds to impact-oriented organizations. The word “mutual” in our name means cooperative; we are governed by our depositors, funded by those with a bias towards the long-term, and engineered to endure the test of time. Building bridges is core to who we are, with the ultimate aim of creating a more vibrant, sustainable and inclusive local food system.
We’re trying to reimagine the status quo in banking – innovating in service of our mission. That includes you will be responsible for supporting our partners (what we call the individuals who entrust us with their savings) across all of our service channels. You’ll thrive in this role by going the extra mile to delight our partners and helping us build the infrastructure to support their needs as we grow. The right candidate will combine experience in banking and customer service with a creative approach to problem solving – helping us find new, scalable ways to humanize banking and digital support. We’re looking for someone equal parts hard working, warm, and motivated by results. The role is location flexible, with opportunities for remote or hybrid arrangements (ex. 2-3 days per week in-person in Concord, NH) for the right candidate. During onboarding, you’ll be in-person more often (4-5 days per week), and once a quarter, our entire team gathers in-person in Concord for 2-3 days of team building and collaboration.
