Careers at First Business Bank

Commitment to Success

As a part of First Business Bank, you’ll find a unique culture based on our “Statement of Beliefs” — 28 statements created when the company was founded capturing expectations of how we behave and treat each other. We expanded these core values and created a Cultural Competency Framework, which defines observable skills and behaviors required to be successful. Our competencies are important to us because we know that our talent fuels company growth and success. We use these core values not only to communicate our culture, but also to help guide employee career growth and development.

VALUES DIFFERENCES

At First Business Bank….

• We have a collective responsibility to share in the commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion;
• To ensure all voices are heard;
• To create an environment where everyone has a sense of belonging;
• And where we can show up every day as our true and authentic selves.

Using the platinum rule to guide us, we strive to treat others the way they want to be treated. Our core cultural competencies include Values Differences: recognizing the value that different perspectives and cultures bring to an organization. With each new hire, we have the opportunity to be better, stronger, and more inclusive. We believe increased diversity impacts our success, and the success of our employees, clients, and communities.

First Business Bank is committed to providing equal employment opportunity to all applicants and employees.
