Private Banker & Market Leader

**ABOUT CENTRAL BANK** Central Bank is a relationship-driven institution that pairs the responsiveness of a community bank with the depth of a full wealth, trust, and private banking platform. We compete on what the national players struggle to deliver in Southwest Florida: local decision-making, direct access to senior bankers, and continuity of relationship over time. For affluent clients and the business owners and professionals who advise them, that combination is the difference between being a client and being a number. We are building our presence in the Naples and Bonita Springs market, one of the most competitive and rewarding wealth markets in the country, and we are looking for a leader to anchor it. **THE OPPORTUNITY** The Private Banker & Market Leader is a player-coach role: you will personally build and manage a portfolio of high-net-worth client relationships while leading the growth, performance, and reputation of Central Bank in the Naples market.
