Assistant Branch Manager – Encinitas

Overview

Encinitas is a low-traffic but highly visible branch—executive leadership sits on site—so the bank needs a polished Assistant Branch Manager who can deliver flawless operations, strong customer service, and the professionalism expected in a flagship-style location. This role stays in the “pipeline” unless the right candidate surfaces.

Key Responsibilities

• Support the Branch Manager with operational oversight, customer service, and light relationship work.

• Maintain an exceptionally professional branch environment; senior leaders interact with this location daily.

• Manage day-to-day processes, approvals, and operational accuracy in a low-volume setting.

• Take on additional projects or cross-branch responsibilities since customer volume is modest.

• Serve as a consistent, polished point of contact for walk-ins and internal stakeholders.

Branch Context

• Walk-in traffic: approx. 8–12 customers/week.

• Senior leadership (including the bank president) is on site.

• Expectations for presence, polish, and composure are higher than in typical branches.

Profile Requirements

• Strong branch banking and operations background.

• High professionalism—can communicate confidently with executives.

• Thoughtful, poised, and able to pass a rigorous interview process with AJ/Tommy.

• Capable of taking on project-based work in a slow branch.
