Personal Banker Jobs in Illinois

A Personal Banker is a professional who assists clients with their financial objectives, providing them with a range of banking services such as managing bank accounts, providing information on the bank's products and services, offering financial advice, and helping with transactions such as loans and credits. They act as a liaison between the bank and its customers, focusing on building and maintaining relationships to ensure customer satisfaction and loyalty. Their main objective is to help customers understand their financial options and make the best decisions for their financial wellbeing.

Important skills a Personal Banker should possess include excellent customer service skills, strong communication, mathematical proficiency, attention to detail, and problem-solving abilities.
