Job Description:

Salem Five is a growing regional financial services organization with a rich history of over 160 years.  As an independent bank, we are deeply rooted in the communities we serve and offer our employees successful and rewarding careers.

This position requires the ability to work in the Woburn, MA offices.

Who We Are: Join an organization that prioritizes innovation, customer service and supporting the communities we serve. Love the people you work with while participating in and helping to shape our collaborative environment. When you join Salem Five, you become part of a growing, regional financial services company. Salem Five has more than 30 retail banking branches throughout Essex, Middlesex, Norfolk and Suffolk counties, strong business banking capabilities, an Insurance division, a Wealth Management & Trust organization and a Mortgage Company that has provided homeownership to generations of families.

Why Salem Five: We’ve been around since 1855 – which means we will be around a lot longer – but we also know what it takes to be competitive in this day and age.  We pride ourselves in being one of the first banks on the internet and continually try and push ourselves to offer the latest in online and mobile banking to serve our customers in whichever channel they prefer. Whether it be a virtual assistant via our website, obtaining cash at ATMs without a card present, or going through the mortgage process via our digital app, we want to offer the digital experiences that customers want. Continued company growth offers opportunities for individual growth.

Salem Five believes deeply in supporting the communities in which we reside. Donations through our Charitable Foundation or events at the branch or location-level are an important part of our DNA. We would not be the company we are without our commitment to businesses and organizations that help the region thrive and to our employees. Come see what we’re all about.
