Now Hiring: Investor Relations Manager

We're seeking an Investor Relations Manager who'll help build and lead a new function for a growing, values-driven bank. You will translate our financial performance, growth strategy, mission, and market opportunity into clear investor-facing communications that strengthen confidence with current and prospective shareholders, analysts, regulators, and other stakeholders. This is an opportunity for you to create structure, discipline, and consistency around investor engagement while partnering closely with executive leadership during an important stage of growth.

What You'll Contribute:

Build a Scalable Investor Relations Function

• Develop and execute an investor relations strategy that aligns with the Company's growth roadmap, capital priorities, mission, and governance expectations.
• Create repeatable processes, calendars, messaging frameworks, and reporting routines that bring structure to a newly added function.
• Serve as a trusted liaison between executive leadership and the investment community, helping stakeholders understand the Company's performance, purpose, and long-term value proposition.

Tell Our Growth Story with Credibility and Clarity

• Prepare investor presentations, shareholder communications, market updates, board-ready materials, and other executive communications that clearly articulate financial performance, strategic progress, and future opportunity.
• Partner with Finance, Accounting, Marketing, Legal, Compliance, and executive leaders to ensure investor-facing messaging is accurate, consistent, timely, and aligned with regulatory expectations.
• Translate complex financial, strategic, and banking concepts into concise, compelling narratives for sophisticated audiences.

Strengthen Stakeholder Confidence

• Manage relationships with current and prospective investors, analysts, transfer agents, advisors, and other shareholders with professionalism and discretion.
• Coordinate investor meetings, roadshows, conferences, shareholder events, and related follow-up to support capital strategy and relationship development.
• Monitor market trends, peer bank activity, investor sentiment, analyst commentary, and competitive positioning to provide actionable insights to senior leadership.
• Manage and maintain the investor relations website, platform, materials library, and disclosure-related content in partnership with internal and external stakeholders.

Champion Our Mission, Protect What Matters

• Stay informed of applicable regulatory requirements and complete all mandatory compliance and IT training.
• Pursue and demonstrate an understanding of established Bank policies, procedures, and regulations.
• Question suspicious activity and collaborate closely with the respective department(s) to help prevent fraudulent activity.

What Makes a Stand-Out Candidate:

• Experience preparing investor presentations, executive communications, market updates, or board-level materials with a high degree of accuracy and polish.

Entrepreneurial Self-Starter - You are energized by the opportunity to build a function from the ground up. You bring structure, judgment, and follow-through to ambiguous situations, and you take pride in creating repeatable processes that scale with a fast-growing organization. You are comfortable moving between strategy and execution, and you understand that credibility is earned through preparation, accuracy, and consistency. A high-pace and high-performance environment excites you and you thrive on defined expectations.

Financial Acumen and Market Awareness- You understand how performance, capital, growth, risk, and reputation intersect in a regulated banking environment. You can interpret financial reports, market trends, valuation metrics, shareholder expectations, and peer activity, then convert those insights into practical recommendations for leadership.

Master Communicator- You communicate with confidence, precision, and professionalism. You listen carefully, prepare thoroughly, and translate complex financial and strategic information into clear messages that resonate with investors, executives, and cross-functional partners.

High Judgment, Confidentiality, and Compliance Discipline - You handle sensitive information with discretion and understand the importance of accuracy, timing, and consistency in investor communications. You are willing to quickly learn and apply applicable Bank policies, disclosure expectations, regulatory requirements, and governance practices.

Tech-Forward and Analytical Thinking - You learn new tools quickly and use technology, data, and market intelligence platforms to improve the quality, speed, and consistency of your work. Familiarity with investor relations platforms, market data tools, transfer agent systems, or financial reporting technology is helpful.

Commitment to Being a Team Player - You build trust across functions, share information thoughtfully, and understand that investor relations is a collaborative discipline. You bring positive energy, accountability, and professionalism to a team that is scaling quickly and working together to make finance a force for good.
