If you would enjoy working in a dynamic environment and are looking for an opportunity to become part of a stellar team of professionals dedicated to service, we invite you to apply online today.

This position offers a flexible hybrid work arrangement, allowing employees to balance in-office collaboration with the benefits of remote work. We provide the necessary tools and technology to ensure seamless productivity, whether you're working from home or the office.

SUMMARY:

The Retail Learning Specialist is responsible for training employees on technical, operational, and soft skills programs, focusing on all areas including product implementation and changes, policy and procedures, compliance requirements, and related sales and service initiatives. This role requires deep expertise in credit union branch operations and member-facing interactions, with the ability to transfer that knowledge effectively to trainees.
This position is hybrid, working at both the Main Office and branch locations. It is not a remote role. Training speed and structure will be based on the learner’s intake of knowledge and progress rather than a fixed cadence. The Retail Learning Specialist must be able to meet trainees where they are, adapting methods and environments to ensure successful knowledge transfer.
The audience for training includes Area Service Managers (ASM), Community Sales Managers (CSM), Universal Bankers, Member Services Representatives, and Virtual Universal Bankers. The Retail Learning Specialist must have comprehensive knowledge of all branch and member services technology.
