Bank of America Hiring Personal Bankers

Bank of America is looking to hire a Personal Banker at its location, according to a job listing posted on its website Tuesday.

The opening comes on the heels of an announcement Tuesday that the financial institution will hire more than 45 small business bankers in Georgia to provide guidance and counsel to local small business owners.

According to a release from the company, the additions are part of Bank of America's larger plan to hire 1,000 small business bankers across the nation by mid-2012.

“The addition of these bankers across Georgia is the latest demonstration of our commitment to small business owners across the state,” said Steve Turner, Southeast region sales executive for Bank of America. “Our small business bankers have a deep understanding of the challenges and opportunities their clients face each day, and are dedicated to provide them with the relevant knowledge, products and services they need to be successful.”

Small business bankers will consult with small business owners at their place of business and educate them on ways to help with operations, including deposit, credit and cash management needs.

There will be new hires in Augusta and Savannah as well as in metro Atlanta, which will offer the greatest number of job opportunities with 35 new hires.

According to the Metro Atlanta Chamber of Commerce, there are 130,408 businesses in Atlanta. Of these, 127,104 have fewer than 100 employees. According to the U.S. Small Business Administration, businesses with fewer than 100 employees account for 54 percent of the total workforce in Atlanta, with two-thirds of the city’s job growth attributed to small business.
