Job Description

Commercial Loan Officer - Missouri (Community Bank)


Are you an experienced commercial lender who thrives on building strong business relationships and structuring creative credit solutions? A well-capitalized, community-focused bank in Missouri is seeking a Commercial Loan Officer to lead local business development and portfolio growth.


This is a relationship-first role-not a cold-calling numbers game. You’ll work face-to-face with business owners, understand their goals, and provide the financing they need to grow and succeed.


What You’ll Do:

• Build and manage a high-quality portfolio of commercial loans
  
  
• Identify new business opportunities through strategic calling and community engagement
  
  
• Analyze credit and financials to structure sound loan packages
  
  
• Maintain portfolio profitability, credit quality, and compliance benchmarks
  
  
• Collaborate with credit analysts, support staff, and senior management
  
  

What We’re Looking For:

• 5+ years of experience in commercial lending at a community bank
  
  
• Deep understanding of credit, financial statements, and business lending structures
  
  
• Strong relationship-building and communication skills
  
  
• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience in finance, business, or related field
  
  

Why Join This Bank?

• Long-tenured team with a family-oriented culture
  
  
• Strong reputation in the community and among business clients
  
  
• Competitive compensation and full benefits
  
  
• Real autonomy and the ability to shape your own portfolio
