Marketing & Event Coordination

  • Support Marketing with event logistics and brand initiatives as needed.
  • Liaise with vendors (venues, caterers, printers) to ensure seamless execution.
  • Capture and route leads from events to the appropriate bankers.

Operations & Efficiency

  • Answer incoming calls and ensure a polished, professional client experience.

  • Serve as a culture carrier—ensuring NHB’s values are embedded in client touchpoints, internal events, and executive support.
  • Act as an informal connector, surfacing employee and client feedback to leadership.

Qualifications

  • 3–5 years of professional experience, ideally in executive support, banking, or client services.
