Job description

About

At ATB, we exist to make it possible for our clients, team members and communities. Our purpose is more than aspirational. It's a real commitment we live every day through our values (what we call the ATB ID).

Life at ATB is about more than work. In fact, we’re consistently recognized as one of Canada’s top employers thanks to our high‑care, high‑performance culture, upheld by the three commitments we make to our team members:

• Impact in action: No matter where you are in the organization, you’re empowered to make an impact in the lives of our clients and communities.


• Thrive together: We want you—the unique, authentic you—to feel safe and celebrated at work. We’re on a continuous journey to build the most flexible and inclusive programs.


• Ready for tomorrow: We want to enable your success through interesting and challenging work, performance enablement, and learning and development.

About The Role

As ATB’s next Branch Manager, you are a leader and innovator in the community. You’re a creative problem solver with an entrepreneurial spirit and a passion for making a difference through your work. ATB branch managers run their branch like it’s their own business, and have direct responsibility for increasing revenues and profitability.

• You’ll have a growth mindset to develop and implement new and better ways of doing things.


• You’ll push the limits of standard banking practices and thoroughly re‑imagine customer experiences.


• You’ll be bold in pursuing new personal and business relationships.


• You’ll support balanced growth and diversified income.


• You’ll be a mentor who supports both the personal development and operational competency of the team.

This role is based out of the Okotoks branch, but on occasion may be required to travel to neighbouring branches.

Accountabilities

• Make decisions based on your market and community, and develop plans to increase your customer base.


• Be proactively involved in the community and with your clients, and don’t just wait for business to walk through the door.


• Freedom to hire, coach and develop staff in all lines of business.


• Translate opportunity in the community into success in the branch.


• Connect with established customers, colleagues and the community, and spot talent in others.


• Lead, motivate and drive.


• Collaborate with a range of people to get results.

Skills, Experience & Requirements

• 3‑5 years previous experience in retail banking or commercial lending.


• Post‑secondary education in business, commerce, or equivalent experience or financial training.

Success At The Branch Level Also Means You

• Are agile and adaptable to a fast paced business environment.


• Possess strong verbal and written communication skills.


• Have strong negotiation and relationship building skills.


• Demonstrate leadership qualities and experience.


• Have success building collaborative relationships both virtually and in person.

We Value Diversity and Inclusion

A resume only goes so far in expressing who you are and the unique perspectives you bring. If you believe your skills and experience align with the role—but you might not check all the boxes—we want to hear from you. We encourage candidates from all work backgrounds, equity‑seeking communities and experience levels to apply. If you’re seeking a career where your drive, perspective and growth are celebrated, we want to hear from you. We’re dedicated to building a workforce reflective of those within our communities, and a culture where our team members are equipped with what they need to succeed—their way. Part of creating an inclusive workplace is recognizing our role in advancing Truth and Reconciliation. We are committed to meeting and exceeding the standards set out in the Partnership Accreditation in Indigenous Relations program created by the Canadian Council for Aboriginal Business.
