Company Description
Be a part of something different
We may offer the same products and services as a big bank, but we couldn’t be more different. We’re rooted in purpose and we’re on a mission to improve lives and strengthen communities. We support nearly 20,000 members and businesses digitally, over the telephone, and in-person across a network of six branches across Niagara and Haldimand.
At PenFinancial, our people are our greatest asset and our values speak for themselves: accountability, inclusivity, integrity, and respect. More than a poster on the wall, our values guide everything we do. They’re values we live every single day – where everyone has a voice and where we listen. Just ask someone who works here to see what they think, and check out our latest annual report to see what we’ve been up to.
We provide all of our employees with a generous benefits package that includes a Living Wage salary, defined contribution pension plan and performance-based success sharing. Combine that with our commitment to contributing to the wellbeing of our employees through competitive benefits programs, wellness days and allowances for education, and it’s no surprise that our employee engagement scores are consistently so strong.
Our commitment to community
We live our brand from the inside out, and our Truly Local Commitment starts with our employees. We support an inclusive, diverse, and caring internal culture. We encourage our employees to give back to the causes that are meaningful to them and their families by providing opportunities to volunteer and represent our truly local credit union through our Truly Local Ambassador program.
