\nCompany Description

SunWest was founded on the belief that financial institutions should exist to serve. Our original founders knew then what a lot of bankers still don’t understand. Financial institutions should help people, not take advantage of them. That’s why 12 telephone workers came together in 1937 to create a financial cooperative with one goal in mind – to help people thrive financially so they can excel personally.

When you work with us, you’re not just clocking in and hoping for the best. You aren’t counting down the minutes until you can hop in your car and drive far, far away from your workplace. Nope, not here. When you work with SunWest, you’re devoting your time to something bigger than yourself. We aren’t just Branch Representatives, Marketing Gurus, Human Resource Professionals, Lending Extraordinaires or Financial Experts. We are friends, family, support systems, and most importantly, we are difference makers. We are passionate about helping others achieve the highest level of financial success and we feel strongly about our communities. Join our team if you’re ready to do what you love, while helping those who need what you have to offer.
