Customer Relationship Specialist

About the company

At The Bank of Missouri we know it takes great people to support the communities we serve! We are passionate about caring for people and communities, and know how to recognize and reward our employees for their talent and contributions. When you work at The Bank of Missouri, you not only get to help others, but you also get the resources, opportunities and support to grow your own career.

Staying in business for more than 130 years is hard. Really hard. But, thanks to our great customers in the communities we serve and our entire team, we’ve grown from one bank, once known as The Bank of Perryville, to now 30 locations in 25 communities across Missouri. Since 1891 when the bank was founded, we’ve endured many events: the Great Depression, two World Wars and the Financial Crisis of 2007-2008. We are a growing, $4.2 billion institution with plans to further expand as opportunities present themselves. With our roots firmly planted in Perryville, Missouri, we continue to grow; evolving and expanding with our amazing team, customers and communities. Those principles are the reason we are still in business today: caring for people and communities is our foundation. With every financial decision we make, we bear those values in mind, every time. We are proud, but above all, very privileged to say, “We’ve been community banking since 1891.” We look forward to the bright future which lies ahead for the shareholders, employees, customers and communities served by The Bank of Missouri.
