What We Are Looking For

Thread Bank is seeking an experienced deposit operations professional to own the account lifecycle and escalation work that connects our community bank and our embedded banking programs. This is a hands-on role. The Deposit Operations Specialist II works each item to resolution, traces problems 

to root cause, and documents each process so it runs consistently and transfers cleanly to others on the team.

This work carries meaningful regulatory and financial exposure. Deceased accounts, escheatment, dormancy, and hold harmless requests each carry their own deadlines, approval paths, and recordkeeping obligations. The successful candidate follows established procedures, applies sound judgment, and escalates promptly when a procedure is unclear or does not address the situation.
