POSITION PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES
The Commercial Banking Assistant Banking Officer is responsible for working with Officers and their client base to facilitate their loan requests, typically up to $7 Million, and any loan and deposit servicing requests. This position is typically dealing with the most complex type of loans within the Bank, and therefore requires a higher degree of expertise in commercial lending. In addition, this position is responsible for a larger amount of line of credit renewals, annual reviews, and financial statement and covenant tracking, due to the larger average size of loans and the heavier focus and concentration on C & I Lending within the portfolio. This position is also responsible for the handling of the entire process of any loan application through to the closing while following all policy and procedures in a manner that is consistent with the company's financial objective.
