Workforce Solutions partners directly with teams looking to hire top talent. We are currently working with a thriving bank looking for a motivated Commerical Lender to lead and build their commercial lending footprint for their Wausau location.

What's the role?

Our client is seeking a results-driven Commercial Lender to join their team at their Wausau location. This fully onsite role is ideal for a motivated professional with strong sales acumen and a passion for expanding the bank's presence in the Wausau market. In this position, you will leverage your commercial banking expertise and extensive network to grow your portfolio while fostering relationships with local businesses.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop strategic sales plans to expand the bank's commercial lending footprint in the Wausau area.


• Build and maintain strong relationships with business clients, fostering trust and identifying their financial needs.


• Proactively generate new business leads through networking, community involvement, and referral sources.


• Analyze and evaluate client financial data to recommend lending solutions that align with their business goals.
