This is not a typical deposit operations role. As a Payments Specialist, you will work across ACH, wires, debit card servicing, disputes, item processing, digital onboarding, and emerging payment channels. You will learn how modern payments work and build skills that are essential in a digital, tech-forward banking environment.

Deposit Operations at Core Bank is hands‑on, fast‑paced, and deeply connected to how the bank works. You will partner with Digital Banking, Treasury Services, Technology, Risk, and Compliance. You will help support system enhancements, workflow improvements, and UAT testing that shape the future of our payment experience.

You will also see how decisions are made and how technology, products, and operations come together to support customers. Strong performers grow into senior operations roles, digital or payment system specialist positions, project or product support roles, operational risk positions, and leadership opportunities.

We coach. We develop. We help people stretch. You will receive feedback, training, and opportunities that support both your current responsibilities and your long‑term goals. Curiosity matters here. Initiative matters here. People who want to build a career in banking thrive in this environment.
